Oh goody, ... That'll be a nice addition.

OOPs ... F does do something usefull when unplugged, but what does "g"
do when unplugged.  All I ever see is a message "checking new news
.. done" but nothing actually happens, except occasionally it causes
one or several agentized nntp groups to loose all track of readedness,
so that when pressing "g" while next plugged, all messages on the
server show up as unread.  Not consistenly and usually just one
certain group, so probably something local.  Haven't nailed it down.
