any chance the agent will become unified with the cache?  I
find it kinda odd to have both.

for foreign servers, agent wasn't storing an active file
until I put them in gnus-secondary-select-methods.  is this
normal?  is this ok?

how do I tell agent I only want ten groups fetched every
time I "J s"?  my newsrc has a couple hundred groups that
I'm vaguely interested in but don't read often.

it's kinda annoying that agent doesn't store articles in a
group until after it fetches them all.  if it ever gets
interrupted in middle of fetching, it has to start all over.

making it async would be good.  but in the meantime,
howabout a batch-mode fetch?
