Interestingly enough, searches on "group rules", "group declarations", 
and similar variants turn up nothing useful.  Searches on "group" turn 
up far too many results to usefully browse via the web interface.

So I'm left hoping that someone who keeps private mail archives for this 
list will come up with the relevant links...

One issue I distinctly recall is that a definition of what it means to 
"support" a property was pretty slippery... should the block be dropped 
if a single property in it can't be parsed?  Or if it can't be applied? 
  What does "applied" mean?  And so forth.
