 There is currently only this rule supported by the engine. Originally
 we thought there would be much more of them, but this wasn't the case
 until today.

Ah, okay.

So what exactly is the meaning of ReadNextItem:allfields? What effect
does it have when the plugin refuses to acknowledge that rule?
The whole item contents will be re-read with ReadItem later, if refused.

When supporting the rule, the engine gets all fields already with ReadNextItem, so they needn't to be re-read later. This enhances significantly performance, if ReadNextItem anyway reads the whole content of the item, so this needn't to be done twice then.

Regards,
Beat
