      Hi,

      I think I found a really small difference in the layout:
      In the description of the interface configuration page I can use small letters but on the main webGUI in "Interfaces" all is written with capital letters. Is this a "bug" or a feature ?

      Why isn't it possible to use "_" or "-" ?

      It would be nice if you could make there some visual changes - if it is possible.

        It was changed at one point and then changed back. The interface names have to have certain restrictions because they must be valid for use in various parts of the pf ruleset and elsewhere.

        Not sure why the Uppercase thing was put back on the menu since that was just cosmetic. I think It's more tradition than anything (It's always been that way)
