Create a firewall rule at position 1 even when there are automatically created rules associated with NAT entries?

How do I make a firewall rule the position 1 rule, even before the automatically created firewall rules associated with NAT entries?

Firewall rules that were automatically created with NAT rules have the lowest positions so any user created firewall rule will be numbered in position higher than the automatically created firewall rules.

I want to create a firewall rule at position 1 that drops all traffic from a network group containing blocked IPs/networks. From what I can see, unless this rule is at position 1, IPs that are listed in this rule can still potentially access the servers that are associated to NAT rules because it is in a higher position.

The only way that I can see that I can create a user created firewall rule at position 1 is to go through all of my NAT rules and uncheck the Automatic firewall rule option, and then manually re-create those firewall rules. Then create the rule that I want at position 1.
