Argh, these unread counts in the Group buffer.  I'm sure many people
have cursed them wrong estimates.

Does it help to hit M-g on the group in the Group buffer?

Is somebody willing to change the Gnus implementation to display the
correct unread count if provided by the backend?  I think this just
means that the %N and %y specs need to be changed to make use of the
additional data from the backend.  Hm.  But I don't know how this is
done.  Hm.
