      i have about 45-50 firewall rules, for my LAN alone.

      i would like to suggest adding a way to 'group' firewall rules of your choice, that you can then expand or collapse.
      this would shrink the size of your rule list and allow for faster location and modification of any rule you may have.

          Sounds great but I think 2.0 is feature complete, so they'll probable would implement it in 2.1 if they like the idea…

              You can add a feature request http://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense
              The more detail information you provide the better.

              As a side note, can't alias help you?

                Between aliases and interface groups in 2.0, you shouldn't need a giant ruleset in most cases.
