well, i don't think it would be worthwhile having zombie groups,
killed groups, and not alive groups.  I think once Gnus knows about these
groups they should be thrown into the killed list.  Gnus should know about
them after i use `F' or if i have read-active set to t

Incidentally it seems to me like the semantics of F are backwards. it should
use the values of gnus-check-new-newsgroups and gnus-read-active-file unless i
tell it with a C-u to do it the long way reading the active file.
