It was one of the motivations of the 'independent test suite' (aka the
Timofeev test suite cited above, still under construction) to verify this claim.
As of today the result is: "Rubi 4.2 gets all the Timofeev examples
from Chapters 1, 3 and 7 with the exception of #10 and #11 from Chapter 7."
These are number 710 and 711 in my enumeration.
[710] Timofeev
integrand : (2*x + sin(2*x))/(x*sin(x) + cos(x))**2
antideriv : -2*cos(x)/(x*sin(x) + cos(x))
sympy : Integral((2*x + sin(2*x))/(x*sin(x) + cos(x))**2, x)
comment : Unevaluated or not an elementary solution!
time : 921.0
[711] Timofeev
integrand : x**2/(x*cos(x) - sin(x))**2
antideriv : (x*sin(x) + cos(x))/(x*cos(x) - sin(x))
sympy : Integral(x**2/(x*cos(x) - sin(x))**2, x)

time : 81.0

Absolutely! And I think SymPy would be an excellent place to do this.
