Yes, it looks like it. I've just reviewed the source of the file that  
caused me to check and it looks like I got the wrong attribute; it should  
be operator.

Here's a sample (generator appears to have been LibreOffice) which is  
definitely invalid but Excel is happy with:

<cfRule type="duplicateValues" dxfId="0" priority="2" aboveAverage="0"  
percent="0" bottom="0" operator="duplicateValues" text="" rank="0"  
equalAverage="0">
   <formula>0</formula>
</cfRule>

The operator is definitely nonsense here I just wonder why Excel doesn't  
raise an objection?
