One mild thought: with the new :count thing, though, wouldn't that be the
preferred way of seeing if the test were done?  e.g. in 3.2.2:

   To determine whether the message was tested for spam or not, the
   preferred solution is to use the test without the ":percent"
   argument, testing for the normalized result value "0" as described in
   Section 3.2.1.

and a few other places and examples.

Well, I'm not sure we should 'bless' one way over the other. So how about replacing the above paragraph with:

---
  To determine whether the message was tested for spam or not, two options
  can be used:

a) a test with or without the ":percent" argument and ":count" match type,
     testing for the value "0" as described in Section 3.1.

  b) a test without the ":percent" argument using the ":value" match type,
     testing for the normalized result value "0" as described in
     Section 3.2.1.
---

The two examples that follow illustrate use of these two so would not need to be changed.

Similar text can be added to the virustest description too.

Let me know what you think.
