Oh, I agree. I have migrated two machines to 15.0, a third is waiting, and I haven't still done the firewall in any. I fear it.
really doesn't appear too difficult. I have it on three boxes now and thing I have everything I had with SuSEfirewall2. it's just different. there are plenty of examples and instructions on the net.
There's two problems: - SuSEfirewall was very nicely documented in the config file. You could read through it, make your changes, then activate. firewalld was basically 'we now use this (RedHat) thing. Go find and read their manuals' (Yes, I'm exagerating a bit). - firewalld is live. You can't easily prepare a configuration without running the actual thing during the setup. If you need to upgrade a server that is both needed online and has to be secured that is a PITA situation.
I successfully opened ports for kconnectd and vnc and moved ssh. but my server is still on 42.2 and SuSEfirewall2. I probably will not change it until I upgrade it.
