And did you by any chance try setting rule 2's action back to Hold and
testing again? The reason I ask, is that when you "Add new item" via
the web GUI, a rule gets created with a flag indicating it is 'empty'
and this flag isn't tested in processing. It shouldn't matter because
either this empty slot will be filled in or it's action remains
'defer', but I may be missing something.

No.

I think your understanding is correct. I haven't tried to duplicate it.

Can you provide the contents of header_filter_rules, ideally from the
output of

bin/dumpdb lists/<listname>/config.pck

or

bin/config_list -o filename listname

but barring that, a copy/paste from the web interface, and a copy of
the test message that illustrates the problem.
