While I think that most people would definitely like to have rules
such as these, I think it would be kinda naughty to have use them by
default.  Particularly the first one, which will result in lots and
lots of ADAPT files being created.  

I also think it would be confusing that scoring on followups to your
own articles will suddenly disappear if you create an "all.SCORE".

So I don't think it's a good idea.  However, perhaps there should be a
menu (or whatever) of "Standard Useful Score Entries", and then the
user could just tick the ones she wants.  Perhaps using the `custom'
interface?
