RK, Here is Jadassohn's way of putting your rule:
The most universal medium for modulating easily and rapidly from one key into another is the [i]diminished chord of the seventh[/i]. It may enter freely anywhere, without preparation of the seventh. It admits of very various resolutions and progressions in major and minor, and by means of the enharmonic change of one or several or all of its tones it can pass over to the most diverse keys.

Alan:
In one of your books (I have all four BTW and echo Martin's comment) you mention the 4 Volume work on Orchestration by Koechlin. I believe it is only available in French. Do you know where I could acquire this set?

If the directions give above are followed, the connection between chords will be correct according to the practice of voice leading in harmonic progression. ... Continued application of the process will, however, result in rather dull music. ... In other words, the set of rules is broken whenever greater musical interest can be achieved by breaking them.
All the rules, and music education won't help you composing music. First, you have to have a IDEA, all the rest in music comes exactly then when you need it, not a second earlier
