Hi all,

I've recently started to use Gmane to view most of my mailing lists
(including this one).  I also have "abbreviate group names" turned on.  As a
result, my group pane shows a number of group names like "g.c.a.p.user",
"g.c.g.g.users", "g.c.g.i.user", and so on.  Obviously, this isn't very
helpful or informative.

Would it be possible to implement an "alias" feature, so that each group has
an alternate name that is shown when "abbreviate group names" is turned on?
I don't think it's necessary to add a UI for this; I'd personally be fine
with editing a text file.  This could be used to turn the aforementioned
group names into e.g. "pan-users", "gnupg-users", and "inkscape-user".  Does
anyone else think that this would be a useful feature?

Cheers,
