That is my thought exactly. This is a step backwards.
I guess I will disable firewalld and go back to iptables.
Systemd, firewalld... Linux from what formerly was "UNIX-like" becomes "MS Windows-like". This is what you will hear from everybody fleeing Linux (I for one started gradually moving servers to FreeBSD a while back).
You and 4 other guys are moving things from Linux to FreeBSD.
The rest of the world is moving things from UNIX and Windows to Linux.
CentOS-7 rebuild RHEL sources and most all of the "important" Enterprise Linux things are moving to RHEL.
RHEL runs the stock exchanges, the banks, etc.
Free BSD is fine and people can use it if they like ... but if you want real Enterprise grade software, it needs to be RHEL based, that is just the way it is.
Keep in mind that EL 7.0 is a 'dot zero release' and some of the features need work. It works for the majority of use cases, but some features will need to be enhanced, and Red Hat will enhance it. When they do, we will build the source code and it will be in CentOS.
