Okay, I'll make it more elaborate (with its own variable ala 
firewalld_zones) and repost.


Speaking of this - I just noticed that Fedora will be branching for F34 
prior to the next libvirt release, and I was hoping I could get this 
into the next Fedora (wish I'd been paying closer attention to the 
important dates :-( - I really need those entered in the same calendar 
that reminds me of my doctor appointments and meetings).
