So I'd like to hear about a more Gnus-y way to do this. The good
thing about Gnus (compared to Wanderlust) is it has a much larger
user community and a much more active developer community. 
Disconnected IMAP would seem to be something that would be useful
for lots of people, so I'd suspect that the reason it's not 
currently supported (at least this feature) is less "this is a
feature we haven't got to yet" and more "well, people just use Gnus
in this different way that obviates the need for such a feature".
Thoughts? What is the common usage pattern for disconnected IMAP?
