But what happens when I use only dst-type in the rule in the INPUT chain?

I think in the INPUT chain the incoming interface with the dst-type and 
in the OUTPUT chain the outgoing interface with the src-type parameter 
could be used. And what should I check in the other 3 chains? In FORWARD 
it seems pointless to let the limit-iface option.

Hm, I need a hooknum parameter in the match function which exists only 
in the target functions.
