Well, the location where bits are to be stored in could be separate for each user. Anyway, I think this could actually be useful. If say, nnml, would be self-contained, you could share a nnml directory with someone and also share the flags with that someone. Without sharing .newsrc.eld. So you can have a department wide nnml group which shares marks. Of course, if you don't want to share the marks, you simply disable the self-containedness on that group/server.
