No... :-) But thinking about it for the length of time it's taken me
to write these words, I don't think offline-ness complicates matters
much. I mean, you need to go online to pull/push updates, but the
computations themselves would be identical.
That is, Gnus would keep a set of "baseline" data in memory. (Basically
everything that is in .newsrc.eld.) Whenever Gnus does a push, it
computes the difference between the baseline and the current state. If
the difference is smallish, it then pushes a delta to the IMAP server.
If not, it pushes the complete state.
So going-online-and-then-pushing wouldn't introduce any new code. Same
with pulling -- it should just work.
I think.
