The 5.8.8 info says:
#`(nnchoke-request-set-mark GROUP ACTION &optional SERVER)'
...
#     ACTION is a list of mark setting requests, having this format:
#
#          (RANGE ACTION MARK)
#
#     Range is a range of articles you wish to update marks on.
...
#     An example action list:
#
#          (((5 12 30) 'del '(tick))
#           ((10 . 90) 'add '(read expire))
#           ((92 94) 'del '(read)))

Is this right?  It seems that the second action should be:
   (((10 . 90)) 'add '(read expire))
Can RANGE really be a single range (a number or cons of two numbers),
or is it always a list of ranges?
