Actually, I think that if the "most specific match" should be applied.
But I am not sure anyone has determined which matches are
considered most specific (and while *I* would say title is more
specific than category, I suspect some might disagree; I guess
for ultimate flexibility, you need a table to order the specificity
criteria).

My solution is just try to have enough tuners so that only the
really occasional condition results in having to choose what not
to record, although I understand that that is not always a viable
alternative.
