I _strongly_ second that. There should also be a variable which would
tell GNUS where to add groups not belonging to any topic yet.
So newly subscribed groups would always added e.g. to `Misc'.

Maybe one could go a little further and provide for the possibility
that new groups (zombies) should be added to a on-the-fly created
topic called e.g. `New Groups'? Maybe with on-the-fly created subtopic
according to their Usenet names?

(I know, it would be better if I actually _coded_ this ...)
