It seems that gnus-parameters has no `G c' like interface. So what would be really cool is a way to say `G c' and then say "apply this to all groups matching the following regex". Or maybe the other way round: a command that lists all known regexes in gnus-parameters, then does like `G c' when you select one. And that allows you to add a regex. Opinions?
