Overall, Android has very limited support for Contact groups. As newer versions of Android and hundreds of different device models have been released over the past two years, Contact groups have stopped working reliably on many different Android devices. No amount of development on our part will fix the problem—it is fundamentally broken in Android.
Locale 2.0 supports selecting multiple individual contacts, instead of selecting contact groups. To select multiple contacts, simply long press on the Add Condition button in the Edit Situation screen. This will allow adding multiple conditions of the same type (i.e. multiple contact conditions), which are implicitly treated as OR.

This is exactly the feature I am looking for. Trying to set a ringtone (or other situation) for all numbers which are in contacts. (But I can't choose all contacts, or any of the existing groups of contacts, just individual ones) There wouldn't even be the need to create a NOT condition because the result would be that those calls from people NOT in contacts would have a different ring, which is what I am trying to get: a unique ring for "first time" callers, and another ring for callers in my list (unless they already have a unique ring assigned, which should override all)
