The "status" of a file would be obvious just from its name, and if someone wanted to locate the same file in an Emacs tree, it would be completely obvious where it is. :-) In addition, it would help work around a mis-feature of arch that sometimes bites me when syncing between Emacs and Gnus: changesets including new files create the files using an absolute path-name (not parent-directory-id+name), so I've got to manually fix them up (move the new file) if applying the changeset to a different directory structure. [Arch mis-features aren't a very good a reason to change Gnus of course, but thought I'd mention it.] -Miles -- Yo mama's so fat when she gets on an elevator it HAS to go down.
