If it were up to me (it's not ;-), the UI would be extended to accept  
prefix format as well as the existing format.  Thus, you could type  
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 or 192.168.1/24.  Note that trying to do  
something that is NOT backward compatible is just a non-starter.   
Think of the number of deployed systems out there...
