I've always thought that a role should be a .pinerc, and "other rules"
need more flexibility, this is an example of why I think so.

I believe that the only way to do what you want to do is to put the
intelligence in the filter, and let Pine always filter, returning either
filtered or unfiltered messages, but let the filter decide that, either by
specific input on the message (e.g the first line starts with a #
character) or by a specific header (say X-Filter: or To: or whatever you
can come up with).
