This said, "iptables-restore -n" is a quite effective and potent batch
interface for rule updates.
And if it (or actually the underlying iptables code it's using) had an
option for dumping rules in iptables-save format then it could be as
potent for read access as well.. Today iptables-restore can only read
rules to the same level of detail as iptables -L -v.
