Yes, the IMAP group name charset situation is currently messed up.  But
I'm not sure what the right approach to fixing it is, as it involves
subtle encoding issues for all the backends.

I think the only feasible way is to let Gnus en/decode all nnimap group
names, since it does that with all other backends.  nnimap will then
have to re-decode and then encode the names again.

Hm.  Perhaps it won't be that difficult.  I'm going to try to implement
that now.
