Sounds hackish. Enabling *incoming* and then asking for disabling
*outgoing*. +interface for all (in and out) and +incoming_interface,
+outgoing_interface for the individual interfaces. Maybe the +interface
is redundant and can be left away.

What's the incompatible change? More I'd complain about the naming of
+incoming_interface vs. +incoming_port, but that's an other story.
