We need a "number of parts to the message" parameter for the summary
line...

(I just realized this, because I wasn't sure if the recent pgnus patch 
might suffer from the previous part creation bug or not)

Ouch!

This would be terribly slow, since it would mean parsing all the
articles in a newgroups just to build a summary.

I guess it would be possible to save that information for the nnml
groups, but that would slow down `g' pretty badly instead.

Maybe something on the modeline for the current article?

Damn.  You're right of course.

That'd work!

Yup.  Fix in Pterodactyl Gnus v0.54.
