Would it be possible to write a spam reporting function using the imap
library of Gnus, that would move an article to a spam reporting group
on the server?  Ie. without first transferring the article to Gnus as
is done in move operations today?

This function could then move to a group that Gnus would refuse to
subscribe to, because it couldn't be read.  As far as Gnus is
concerned, the spam reporting group name is just a string sent as-is
to the IMAP server.
