Well, I do agree with this of course!  Heck, thats one of the reasons
that oo is so popular with the theoretical crowd, its supposed to
support this type of re-use.

The reason I figured I'd just submit it here was that it would get
included with both Emacs and XEmacs since they both follow gnus.
XEmacs keeps track of a bunch of packages, but Emacs doesn't and gnus
is but one of a minor few so I thought if it was going to add a key
binding for it it should be shipped with it...  Then if something like
VM or W3 wants to add a keybinding as well, thats no problem as just
because its in the gnus sub-dir in the load path, it can still find
it...  Gnus is shipped with both packages?

Make Sense?  I thought not...  Doesn't to me much either...

Wes
