Isn't this required for nested syntax? I didn't check, but does your
arbitrary table/chain name support work also when restoring a ruleset in
that nested syntax? Another interesting aspect might be arbitrary set
names - 'set' is also a valid keyword used in rules, this fact killed my
approach with start conditions. ;)

Cheers, Phil
