ACK. I understand the logical correctness (or "purity") of the
existing behaviour, I just never found it practically useful, i.e., I
don't see the errors it would prevent by not accepting OR( 1entityID ).
(Not half the pain that groupOfNames' MUST requirement for at least
one 'member' caused over the years; though I have dealt with in
similar ways, i.e., add a dummy member if the last member left the
group, in order to avoid having to delete the empty group at this
precise moment, too.)
