Just to allow more flexibily in the future.

No too long ago Carsten created a new tree widget for Kmail's folder list and 
Knode's server/group list and there was some incompatibilities between 
Carsten's tree and our article list usage. Since we used the same widget 
(KNListView IIRC) I had to turn off some features from his tree to be used 
for articles. (Damned English! Am I expressing myself clearly here?)

The viewer should be relatively easy indeed. Perhaps even the composer might 
be unified with some kind of dynamic fields differing from Knode to Kmail. It 
might be possible.

Makes sense. That's the way to go.

Sure, let's activate this list once again (it was becoming just a repository 
for bug reports :)

cheers,
