IMHO there should only be one list of servers, and it should be
customized, and the server buffer should be a customized viewer/editor
of that variable. It should be aware of common server variables too
(SSL, Kerberos, etc).
Adding/removing/experimenting with servers is a hassle with Gnus. This
would be a step towards making this is easier.
