Ah, but how about also 'where we were last time reading this group'? Gnus could track that too, just like it tracks states of articles. Indeed, hundreds of marks tracked already.

Overkill for me, I wouldn't use it, but as a marketing ploy... gnus stock would out beat Google Groups before close of the market.
