I'd love to see this too.  Keep in mind the spam.el "spam score" can
be used for more than just spamicity, I plan to keep it normalized
between 0 and 1 for any future spam filter that supports scoring.
SpamAssassin for instance would be normalized to 0 - 0.5 for values
under your threshold, and 0.5 - 1 for values over the threshold.  So
you may want to have gnus-summary-sort-by-spam-score instead of
-spamicity.

Now all I have to do is implement the SA scoring :)
