This reminds me of a related problem:  The line thickness for silk is
minwidth.  So if you design with 8/8 rules you get 8mil silk.  Every
vendor I've ever worked with has had separate silk rules.  Even <6/6
vendors want 10mil min silk.

(BTW, custompcb botched a couple sets of boards and it turns out that
the reason for the problems with the second set is that their process
has a higher annular ring requirement above a certain size and they
tried to fix that by tweaking the gerbers.  That's another thing we can't
express.)
