I was hoping that was the answer :)

I don't think you're quite understanding the ruleset tree structure.  
rulesets contain rules and other rulesets.  You may want to have a rule 
that creates a new rule on a completely different part of the tree.  

In other words, I don't see specifying the ruleset you're adding the rule 
to to be a loss.
