I know that this could very easily be implemented at the application level, however has any thought been given to the optional separation of the rules functions from the facts within the engine.

Here are the benefits.
1. From an XML perspective in a complex network, perhaps involving real-time systems, updating complete rulebases could be a high latency and problematic exercise.
2. Rules in business processes change less frequently than the individual facts
3. Parsing the knowledge base in a mission critical system, where there has been just a fact update could also be a high latency exercise.
