The notification part is very useful and supposed to be stable (I mean, not changing so often) and I think we can make it work once and ever. The manipulation part, however, is not needed by most of people, and apt to changing from time to time when the conntrack core changes. I have a suggestion on the notification part, that we can provide a /proc/net/netfilter/notification. It is a bit mask that controls what kinds of notification should be sent.
