I think that having topic parameters is worth losing the ability to have
groups in multiple topics.  I have `gnus-topic-unique' set to nil, but I
haven't found any very interesting use for it (other than to see the
bugs that still exist in the article count).

By the way, what is the replacement variable for `gnus-topic-unique'?  I
just noticed that it is no longer documented (and I set it to nil in my
.gnus).
