It will be used by future versions of Gnus, but it is generally useful. I think it is better if future network related packages used it, instead of writing its own similar code (which is what is done today, I think). I agree it is useful. Would you please document it in etc/NEWS and in the manual? Every feature installed now need to be documented immediately. Should read-passwd be integrated with this new file?
