Red request: more topic-based commands

[John Griffith]

I learned the other day from this list that `M-g' on a topic just
updates groups in that topic.  Nice.

How about something similar for other commands like `l' and `L'?  This
would allow you to show, say, level 3 groups under one topic, but
level 2 groups under other ones.

I don't know what the best key maps would be `(prefix) T l'?
`(perfix) M-l'?  `M-l' and `M-L' are just bound to
downcase-region-or-word which don't make any sense in the group buffer
anyway.  But perhaps `T' commands would fit better with the current
keymap setup.

`3 RET' on a topic line will display level three (and better) groups
only.

Well, I had a feeling there must be some way to do this, thanks.

But still, this only gives me groups with unread messages.  Can I get
the `L' effect as well as the `l' one?

Also, is there any way to display groups with just level 3, ie. no
level 2 or 1 groups?

I think the default effect is the `L' one, but I could be wrong...

`A l' lists just one level.
