As I think I suggested in another mail, if you think this is trivial and easy then I think you should propose the patch to solve it. I understand what you're saying; I think the solution is self-evident (add a statement trigger that captures TRUNCATE and DO INSTEAD NOTHING), so I just wouldn't be bothered to fix this. But I suspect things are the way they are partly because nobody proposed or implemented a patch for this behaviour before. The manual is also quite clear in what statements you can write rules about; by implication, other statements are not covered, so I'm not actually sure why you think the manual is misleading.
