Actually, why not do this through scoring & total expire.
IE, I can score things by age (each week old, knock off another 1000),
eventually they get low enough they're marked as read, and total
expire wipes em. Interesting articles (by scoring) would be kept
longer.
IMO, this offers more flexibility.. Just a way to score based on
relative age. I can build that feature with what I requested.
