Which rules?  I see no rule hits here.

I see that I can use ImageInfo and can create a ONE_IMAGE rule.  But I
don't see a similar "TextInfo" module and so can't create a similar
ONE_TEXT rule.  Is there an existing way to do this?

Yes.  It is well documented that people will do the darnedest things!

I don't doubt that they would have FPs as a general case.  But that is
why I included the weasel words "here" in my note.  But even if not
100% assured everywhere then scoring it appropriately for general
distribution should still allow it to increase the effectiveness of
the rules for the masses.  And then I could score it up.

Specifically "here" that would be okay.  It might not be good for
other people but it would be good here and would really help with the
current image only spam.
