I'm no programmer, and this might belong in the feature request. But I would like to be notified by email when my WAN ip changes since it is DHCP from the ISP. Since I don't have any clients running 24/7 on the LAN side, it would be nice to implement this feature on the firewall since it does run 24/7.

I'm sure it will be suggested that I get DynDNS or some other dynamic dns service, but that is not an option for me.

Can this be as simple as a script? or would it need to be more advanced than that? Thank you in advance for everything.

In theory, if you can write a script that compares the current IP to what it was awhile ago, you could do it.
