    At least security profile grouping feature already exists under "config firewall profile-group".

    Follow this to enable it in GUI. Then "Profile Groups" sub-menu shows up under "Security Profiles" menu.

    Be aware that "config sys settings" is per vdom config, in case your in multi-vdom environment.

    There are already "sequences" for policies, but I totally agree: groups, chains, etc. would help a lot for larger rule-sets.
