Neat.

Has that ever stopped us before?  :-)

So, the question is -- what marks should be predicatable?  (If that's
not a word, I just made it one.)

These are the ones that are stored in the .newsrc.eld file:

(defconst gnus-article-mark-lists
  '((marked . tick) (replied . reply)
    (expirable . expire) (killed . killed)
    (bookmarks . bookmark) (dormant . dormant)
    (scored . score) (saved . save)
    (cached . cache) (downloadable . download)
    (unsendable . unsend) (forwarded . forward)
    (recent . recent)))

I could make a general predicate that takes an article number and a
type, but the function would just be one big cond, or I could define

gnus-article-marked-p, gnus-article-replied-p, gnus-article-expirable-p

and so on.

If a general predicate (which might actually be easier to use, in this
case), it would be called `gnus-article-marked-p'.
