We aim to remove non standard kernel hooks to increase maintainability of the project and try to get more connection to standard FreeBSD.

Kernel support is also removed as of 15.1.10.

Most of the stuff it does can be hand-rolled using ifconfig(8).
Since these operations are sparse and well-defined, there's no
harm in doing them.  The added benefit is a quantum leap in
transparency and traceability as well as using a script-based
language to do string manipulation for the command line as
opposed to C-style API fiddling (meaning: it's easier).

to be replaced in a (near) future release.

related to recent kernel cleanup.

This will be replaced with more standard components (schedule 15.7)

The login redirects to index.php, but the ACL doesn't know about `/',
which is unfortunate because otherwise we can't land on the dashbard
anymore even though we have the rights.

While there, consolidate the ACL description for the dashbard.  It was
status, not system, but now it is lobby anyway...

... and breaks if one uses the proper shell escape later.  ;)

... and refactor the code left and right.  Someone's got to do it.
