I don't believe it was actually designed to work this way, but this is how it works for me:
I set all of my global server rules as rule 1, which I have in my rule_sets table as 1 with a name of default. I then have several others for specific zones. What happens is the default set (1) gets loaded globally, then any rules under the individual zone rule sets get loaded on top of that. So, effectively, I have global rules that apply to all zones (including the ones with custom rule sets) then have just 1 or 2 zone specific rules for the zones I want them to be different in.
Of course, you could build full rule_values for each rule set, but that would be quite messy to deal with if you need to change global settings.
