Yes, sparse threads should work very nicely with
`gnus-fetch-old-headers' set to `some', I think.  

Oh, I forgot to mention that there are three settings to
`gnus-build-sparse-threads' -- nil, t, and `total', which is kinda
like nil, `some' and t for `gnus-fetch-old-headers'.  Perhaps I should
use the same naming scheme for both variables?  Yes, I think so.  

I haven't road-tested it much, but these sparse threads seem quite
pleasing to me.  They do make many threads quite a lot deeper,
though.
