Ah, very good, I see that was added in 0.5.0.  I had ported my config
from the previous version and did not see that option.

The enable/disable order is configurable. I think it is near the
bottom of the config file.

We're running pulledpork for rulemanagemnts and use it to pull down VRT
and ETPro rulesets.
We'd like to be able to disable All the ETPro rules and enable them
slowly for tuning purposes.

You should have two separate pulled pork configs, one for VRT, one for
ETPRO.  In the ETPRO config, refer to a disabled_sids.conf which
contains pcre:ETPRO.  That will disable all ETPRO by default.
Unfortunately, pulledpork is really bad at whitelisting because
enabling occurs before disabling, so it's really tricky to disable all
ETPRO except for FTP.  There's probably a regexp that could match all
ETPRO that does not contain FTP, but I was having troubles getting it
to work.
