Description

Currently IP-only rules are processed separately from the "regular" rules, leading to some unexpected behavior around inspection order.

A better approach could be too have them as per sgh prefilter engines. This would then simply make them behave like regular rules. The engine could still run only for the first packet in the flow, or on every packet for flow-less packets.
