Hm? He has already the RH-Firewall-1-INPUT chain wide open! His first
rule inside this chain is

ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere

So the rest of what is in there is bypassed by that. And your suggested
rule is just necessary in a different setup or at a later time, when all
runs, as an exchange to the global "accept all incoming traffic" rule.
