It's for people who switched to total-expire from auto-expire and are
now missing a way to mark articles such that they will be kept but not
shown by default.
Dormant articles are kept on disk but not shown by default. This is
very similar to the behavior of read messages when total-expire is
off. Thus, it can be used as a substitute when total-expire is on.
