I agree with this. Although I see some problems with deciding about
individual features. For instance the way I sort emails into nnml
groups is clearly configuration, but is different at work and at home.
A related problem is that there isn't an obvious way to transfer (or
not transfer) the per-group configuration information.
And with email or news that I read both at home and at work, it would
be nice to have a good way to transfer the "current state"
information, too.
