R1728? I think we used it that way a couple times "way back when (before repeals?) and I like it myself. I haven't personally been tracking various tinkerings with the Rule so I don't know what was intended, don't see the harm in enabling in within R1728 (root's right in that it's ambiguous so a R1728-fix wouldn't hurt). -G.
