Subject: Topic parameters overrule Group parameter?

Hi!
In my .gnus I have (setq gnus-use-adaptive-scoring t), so every group
(mail & news) uses scoring by default. But for my mail I switched off
scoring using (gnus-use-scoring nil) in the "Mail" topic parameters.
But mailing lists should use scoring, so I switched it on in the
"Lists" topic parameters. Up to now, everything's working as
I expected.
To make things even more complicated, I want some mailing lists not to
use scoring at all. So my intention was to switch it off by adding
(gnus-use-scoring nil) to the group parameters. But apparently the
statement in the "List" topic overrules the statement of the
list.special group so that I do have scoring in list.special!
[Gnus]
[Mail] (gnus-use-scoring nil)
[Lists] (gnus-use-scoring t)
list.bla
list.peng
list.special (gnus-use-scoring nil) <-- does not work!
[Privat]
mail.privat
[News]
...
The info pages say:
,----[ Topic Parameters ]
| All groups in a topic will inherit group parameters from the parent
| (and ancestor) topic parameters. All valid group parameters are valid
| topic parameters (*note Group Parameters::.).
`----
but there's no statement that group parameters overrule topic
parameters. But I'd really like them to do so... Bug? Feature?
Cheers,
Ray
