An approach proposal:  Rather than working on making the above do something
which is already default behavior, how about taking care of the wildcard
statement that is contradicting the NORMAL NOARC default?  What if the
EXCEPT keyword was extended to support ROUTE and SEND statements the same
way it is for Gateroute, StripAttributes, TinySeenbys, etc?

Would a final catchall like:

SEND Normal World EXCEPT  

accomplish all of your objectives or are there others not on the table that
this wouldn't address?

I can certainly see some advantages in my own setup for something like:

ROUTE Crash 382/0 382/All EXCEPT 382/999

Whaddaya think?  It certainly wouldn't be culture-shock for us lifers, and
it would be transparent to existing setups until the user exercises the
option to implement. :)
