It's not about scripts. I just think it's easier to understand:
Having the the builtins arranged like the packets traverse them, and
being on top of the chains they "jump" into.
I see no advantage of changing to the new behavior, only that it confuses
people that had worked for years with the old behavior.
And last but not least:
libiptc.c:565 /* FIXME: sort chains */
I read this like: not implemented yet :)
