Hi again David,
writing rules against the option set code would be really useful, and is a requested feature. In the source field config we could specify wether we want to use the option code or the name. Will add a blueprint for this.

In our case, we have users who could be using one of 3 languages. Rather than having to create a more complex rule to support the different language variations, is there any way of accessing and comparing against the underlying option code? To me, this seems to be a more valid approach to comparing with option names that may ‘change’ due to spelling corrections or in our case, changes in Locale.
