Yeah, that would really be nice. A `range-memq' on a balanced binary
tree would be really fast. Hm... perhaps I should have a peek at the
text property code?

It would do away with the compressing/decompressing needs that Gnus has,
and it might be enough, but I'd have to do some more benchmarking
first, I think.
