After several attempts to fix user/group rules which ended like the most 
recent one - cited below - with *ZERO* feedback, I won't waste anymore 
effort.  Either somebody steps up, does proper testing and reports back, 
or user/group rules go!  End of story!

This is not personal against Tillman - he just happend to be the most 
recent one to hit the problem.

and again ... the thread ends here - zero feedback received :-(  Does 
anyone care about user/group rules at all?  If so - speak up now or I'll 
just disable them with the upcoming update!!!
