SSH + openFirewall exception

Can some community members please weigh in on this thread? Poor @bb2020 is being left out in the cold here.

Many newcomers aren’t aware that SSH opens the firewall by default despite our official policy to never open ports without the user specifying. Those who have been around the community take for granted that we know SSH is the exception and it generally is what you want. How to balance these two positions? The linked PR attempts to resolve this issue.

@jonringer your feedback would be especially valued as the current release manager.
