Disable Layer7 Protocol UI elements interaction

[d3fz]

Even though it's been extensively advised not to use Layer7 Protocol for now (due to a guaranteed router bootloop), every now and then someone pops up in the forum reporting/asking for help (mostly unaware new users).

This simple CSS rule could prevent users from accidentally shooting themselves in the foot (bricking their routers), at least for now. Since it's all done via CSS, it shouldn't break any functionality and can be enabled/disabled in a heartbeat, whenever necessary. Works for both Desktop/Mobile versions.

/* Disable Controls / Block events  */
#rule_app_protocol_label,
#rule_app_protocol_type,
#exception_app_protocol_label,
#exception_app_protocol_type,
#use_app_protocol:enabled,
#app_protocol_label,
#app_protocol
{
    pointer-events: none;
    touch-action: none;
    user-select: none;
    opacity: 0.5;
    border-color: #ccc;
    box-shadow: none;
}

QoS Download/Upload

Restrictions

This could also be applied to the "Attempt to Preserve Settings" checkbox option, but since I've seen some people taking the risk and using this option even on big updates (when highly advised not to), I'll just leave as it is.

re:"Attempt to Preserve Settings"

I wonder if you can compare versions to enable/disable?

or have this feature disabled on official builds but enabled on test builds / self builds?

I'm going to merge this... I think it's finally time to ditch layer7. It just doesn't work anymore, and I'm not going to bother porting the l7 iptables module to the latest kernel version for the new release.

Once everything is up and running I’ll look at nDPI (again).
