I don't get a vote, but if I did I'd sure be in favor of this!

I seem to recall quite a good deal of discussion back in the 3.0 timeframe
on ranges and possible score assignments for the Bayes tests; or at least I
think I do.  Perhaps there were some useful potential scores in there.

Is the Perceptron smart enough to take fixed scores into account and
redistribute the score amongst the other non-fixed rules that hit, or does
it just ignore fixed scores?

If it takes fixed scores into account, it might be interesting to do several
scoring runs with different Bayes scores and see what effect this has on a
few of the other more interesting rules, unless this would be a huge pain to
attempt.
