If it had been technically possible to migrate the legacy sysv 
initscript to native systemd we ( as in me and Thomas Woerner 
<mailto:twoerner at redhat.com> ) would have done so during the F15 
development cycle ( rather then F16 I believe )but due to wide variety 
of reasons most obvious one being that you loose iptables-restore and 
iptables-save we did not so I suggest you start with something that 
actually works.

I'm currently looking into implementing/integrating proper nftables 
support into systemd which is possible now since nftables has a proper 
client library to talk to the kernel.

If and then when that work completes ( based on how well it goes and my 
free time )  distribution should be able to drop iptables and the legacy 
sysv initscript along with it chose they to do so.
