I apologise if this isn't the appropriate mailing list. Also, congratulations on the 3.13 inclusion, and 0.99 release!
After browsing the code I didn't find any atomic ruleset update/restore functionality, as described by http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=135959066918397&w=2 and present in iptables-restore and possibly pfctl -f ...
If it's not currently implemented, I would suggest something like:
# nft -f myruleset
# cat rulesetset
table filter {
chain input {
type filter hook input priority 0;
ct state established accept
...
so that the user can have a nicely formated firewall configuration file, applied by a simple command.

Yeah, that's exactly what we do. Basically the ruleset you get by
nftables list table ... is formated like this and can be parsed using
nft -f.
