system-config-securitylevel and named services

There are quite a few requests for service by name/service description for
s-c-securitylevel:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=128541
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=124161

There is also this related thread here:

I thought I'd throw a couple of thoughts up for discussion.

Earlier anaconda would pass a service name + :tcp to lokkit, I'm reluctant to add that back for s-c-securitylevel as it's not quite correct.  

Would an add/remove rather than textbox for additional services make better
sense? In which case should we have a predefined list of more well known
services, with addition of custom ports (possibly with descriptive text or
just showing both port and service name from /etc/services).

I wonder if we will want to have better "service definition" for service publishing via howl.
