I used to have this in my .gnus for ages:

(setq rs-mailing-lists "list\\.")

;; Patric Mueller in <7iq1t9.m63.ln@bhaak.xodox.com>
;; von mir erweitert um die Abfrage auf Mailinglisten 
(defadvice gnus-summary-reply (around reply-in-news activate)
  (when (or
	 (not (or (gnus-news-group-p 
		   (if (gnus-virtual-group-p gnus-newsgroup-name)
		       (car (nnvirtual-map-article (cdr gnus-article-current)))
		     gnus-newsgroup-name
		     ))
		  (string-match rs-mailing-lists gnus-newsgroup-name)))
	 (y-or-n-p "Really, really reply? "))
    ad-do-it))

It adds "support" for virtual groups that contain newsgroups and for
user defined lists (all of my mailing lists) where I usually don't
want to say `R'.

Would it be useful to be added to Gnus or is it too specifically
tailored for my personal needs?

Cheers, Ray
