I see.  But ‘C-k’ (gnus-summary-kill-same-subject) that you mentioned in
your original message AFAIK doesn't do more than ‘c’ either.  New
messages in these threads will keep appearing.

I find such functionality very useful as well.  It would entail some
risk of missing interesting stuff, but this should be more then
outweighed by missing less interesting stuff in new topics.

Please keep us updated if you manage to get this to work in some way!
