I suppose we'll silence more rules in a future release.
If you are willing to work on patches (and don't have a
problem with copyright assignment) then you are welcome to
help.  Otherwise it will get done eventually.  :-)

There are quite a few more rules that are not silent.
I expect heated discussion over the silencing issue for at
least some of them ...
