| Why don't you use `C-c C-k' when you decide you don't want to edit
| stuff? Just curious.
For me the obvious selection was first to press C-c C-c t quit the
edit mode as in any other MUA (Like my old RMAIL). The Edit mode was
usually a key "mishit"(is that the word?): I really didn't want to
edit message, but press "E" to mark article expired. I have swapped
the keys now, but caps lock still suprises me from time to time.
When C-c C-c always saved a message; even unmodified one, I decided, that it
would be more logical if it did nothing when user pressed C-c C-c
while visiting unmodified message.
Actually after the patch, the code does update
Gnus internal states, but there is no save any more. I left the
Gnus internal structure update untounched, because I wasn't sure If
that could be bypassed safely too.
