I sometimes get hosed .overview files in ~/News/agent.  It would be
nice if it was possible to delete them and then to tell Gnus to go
through the articles already downloaded and to make a small .overview
file which contains data about those articles.  The next time I enter
the group the .overview file will then contain more data fetched from
the server, I guess.

It would just be a help for developing Gnus, I don't expect that
normal users will use it a lot.
