I think LW should follow other P2P apps like Bearshare and force IP automatically. This makes it easier for users to configure LW, and as an effect it would likely increase (albeit small) the number of non firewalled hosts. I think Philippe Verdy made the same recommandation a while back (I asked for it too). It is easier for an newbie to forward NAT and the IP on the same port and then see that it works than getting to know how things exactly work and play with different ports.
mes 2 cents!
