Cannot configure dual stack IPsec tunnel to accept connections from any remote address on both address families

Description
If in Phase 1, Internet Protocol "Both (Dual Stack)" is selected, then under Remote Gateway the explanation in the blue info icon ("More information") has an issue leaving the user somewhat clueless whether to put '0.0.0.0' or '::', if the aim is to allow connections BOTH from any IPv4 address AND connections from any IPv6 address. Please add some clarification to the text in this regard.
I suggest the following addition to the info box (only if this is correct - please confirm):
If Internet Protocol is set to 'Both (Dual Stack)‘, using either '0.0.0.0' or '::' will allow connections both from any IPv4 and from any IPv6.

Can confirm that this is very confusing. It might be better to add a "Allow from Any Source" checkbox that just applies this instead. We could then hide this option for VTI connections and use form validation to always make 0.0.0.0 or :: invalid entries. Just my thoughts.

The suggested note addition isn't accurate, only tunnels of the same address family as the remote gateway are allowed to connect with the current code. It's easy to work around without adding another checkbox, though.
Changing this to a bug since at the moment it's impossible to configure this and it should be working.
