Not with 0.25 and below.  With current unstable/development (and, 
therefore, 0.26 and above), you will (and will need to change your rule 
appropriately to account for it).  The example clauses in 
unstable/development have been updated to show how to handle it, so 
you'll just modify your rules to match once you upgrade.
