Improve rules deletion

The way how that small remove icon appears only when mouse pointer pass over the row or when the row is selected is not looking good at all, also it would be great to have option to multiple select many rows and delete them at once. See attached image for more info.

It's cool idea, but at first time when you open firewall page you will see no delete icon and the column has no header title indicating it contains remove buttons (at first I thought it's not implemented at all) then after mouse passes over a row the icon started to appear.

Yes, that's the exact thing that everybody complains about: that the buttons are not discoverable because regular users don't randomly hover their mouse cursors all over everything as a matter of habit.
