Let me explain the reason behind all this.  Then Lars can decide
whether he or I should do a clean interface for this extension, or
whether we want to make do with a kludge.

I find that not all of my mail can be automatically split using the
traditional mechanism.  This is because I get messages from people
where I cannot decide beforehand which folder they belong to.  My idea
for splitting these messages is as follows:

Whenever a mail is put into a group, Gnus remembers the message id
and the group.  Now, all new messages have their references header
checked, and if I find that the `father' has been written to some
group, I just split the new reply to the same group.

I believe this would help quite a bit for those cases where you have
to manually decide which group a mail should belong to: all replies
and followups are automatically put into the same group.

Wouldn't this be a nifty feature?  Lars, can you tell me how we want
to do this remembering the groups and message ids thing?  Use the
predefined nnmail-prepare-save-mail-hook or use something new?  What
should the new thing look like?
