I've run into what Roland is describing, and I quite agree that the status output (or perhaps another command like 'ufw rules') should match input commands. I once set a rule that was wrong and it took me ages to figure out exactly the right syntax to remove it - it should not even be necessary for me to look at a man page to do it, after all, the whole point of using ufw instad of plain iptables is that it's supposedly easier to use. Also agree on putting source rules in a config file - in fact why not use /etc/ufw/ufw.conf since it's only being used for 'ENABLED' at present - and have it regenerate the native rules files on a restart of ufw.
