It's on the todo list. It can't be implemented in nnimap alone, Gnus
would have to be modified and I'm not sure what the best way to do
that is.

The different strategies discussed on the nnimap list to emulate
article replacing in nnimap all have their obvious problems (simply
because article replacing can't be done with IMAP), and I don't think
I'll be putting much effort in implementing something broken.
