Kai> Opinions?

I made a patch to do this years ago, but Lars rejected it.  I'd be
happy to resubmit it if the desire was re-found.  I've had it applied
to my CVS tree ever since i created it years ago.  The property value
I picked is "not-expired", but whatever...

What I wanted to do (that Lars said he would accept) would be to make
it a string or list such that you could do (display . "-E"), which
would functionally say display everything but expired articles.
Obviously the full range of marks would have to be supported.
