Well, we have the cache, and it ought to be possible to edit the
cached copy of a message, right?
OT1H, it seems to be a good idea to keep the annotation information in
the .newsrc.eld file, but I'm thinking of nnimap users where all state
information is supposed to be kept on the server. Hm. With article
editing, we could create a special nnimap group for annotations and
put them there. The X-Gnus-Annotation header would then contain the
identifier of the corresponding article in the annotation group.
Sadly, both choices seem to be less than ideal :-(
