But other than that, the only thing that change is a new keybinding in
message mode and a couple of lines of codes that are executed when you
fetch new mail.  If there are bugs in those few lines, I'm sure we can
find them.

(I found one bug, `gnus-delay-send-drafts' needs to handle
non-existing nndraft:delayed.  Try moving your ~/News/drafts/delayed/
directory away and watch what happens.)

Yes.

That would be nice, I guess most peoples' first encounter with this
feature would be through that menu item.

Considering the amount of stuff in the Gnus menus, one more wouldn't
hurt, I think.  And it exposes functionality in a nice way.
