[Rivet] New analysis: ATLAS_2012_I1094061

[David Grellscheid]

Hi Andy,

without having time to think about this particular issue, I'm a bit wary 
of the recent trend of softening the 'hepmc-code-1-only' feature Rivet 
has. More and more of these requests are coming in, and I think we 
should try to define quite clearly what is OK and what isn't.

   David
