Note that the ticked and dormant marks have the same issue w.r.t. the
cache. Hm. When gnus-use-cache is t and a message was entered into
the cache because it was ticked or marked as dormant, then marking it
as read does not immediately remove it from the cache. I'm not sure
when it is removed from the cache, though. Maybe when the group is
exited?
I think as a first approach, the unread, read, and expirable flags
should be taken into consideration for undoing. It does not make
sense to undo an answered flag, and undoing a saved flag would mean
deleting the file in question. Not what we want, I think.
