How difficult would it be to get some basic level filtering at the
gateway? Would be nice, to just open the few ports I actually
respond to, and block ssh login attempts on port 22, stuff like
that? Would help make the system more 'rf friendly' I think.

This could be done on multiple levels, but it wouldn't be difficult.

The challenge is to make firewall management something anybody can use. It would require a web interface and also an API so we avoid administration overhead of managing firewall rules.

Most people would prefer to run their own routers, and thus be in charge of their own rules, but I can see how others may want managed for them (especially over expensive links like satellite)
