Clues in documents
Right now, the processor has to be told by the person running it which file to use for rules. A PI could take care of that, adding one more bit of evidence that people like to use this cursed mechanism.

Nested rulesets
Right now, all the rules are in one file. There's nothing in the code that requires that, except laziness. Modularizing these would be handy.

Human interaction
It's mildly foolish to assume that all of this knowledge should be or will be stored in rules files. A pop-up "what does this entity mean?" dialog box with a reasonable set of options for people (including "update the rule file with this for future work") would not be difficult to create and might do a lot of good.
