I'd rather eat my own leg than introduce namespaces into the config.
That said I stand by the original idea except that.. I've gone back on the
idea of re-naming matchers, it potentially introduces upgrade problems
without really offering much reward. But I can be persuaded otherwise.

Yeah I think so.

Convince me that there is value in this, my problem with it would be that it
_might_ mean that it becomes harder to predict the outcome of processing for
an individual mail, in that the whole process is no longer explicit.

No I didn't! put it down to seasonal laziness.
I was recycling your idea expressed earlier though, and my own recent
experience with Rhino.
