Subject: Default subscribed newsgroups as regular expression

Hi!

Is there a reason why `gnus-default-subscribed-newsgroups' is a list
and not a regular expression, which IMO would be more convenient in
most cases?

Example: if the variable is set in a site-wide default setting the
administor has to keep up with frequently changes of the available
local newsgroups. Quite annoying, I think. As a regular expression,
the setting "local\." would suffice (until the end of the world as we
know it).

Cheers,
  Ray
