Idea for a change in the rules <grin>

Wouldn't it be cool if each rule had an 'only do if it if the previous rule was applied' checkbox
Conditional renaming made easy

Chuck in a WasTheRuleExecuted boolean, and test for true/false at the start of each rule and the job's done

Of course i'm assuming that all the rules are applied to each file in turn, and that the rules are applied to all the files one at a time

eg
file1 -rule1
file1 -rule2
file2 -rule1
file2 -rule2
not
rule1 -file1
rule1 -file2
rule2 -file1
rule2 -file2

Can you give an example of how that can be used? And do you really need it, or it's just an idea?

Maybe the same can be achieved in some other way...
