Using spool configuration, with an NNTP inews for posting; 18.52 on a
Sun3/50.

I had just finished reading my news, so I had used `q' to leave the
last article of the last group (in gnu.emacs.gnus, as it happened),
putting me back in my *Newsgroups* buffer, now showing, e.g.:
      0: misc.jobs.misc
      0: news.groups
      0: news.sysadmin
      0: gnu.emacs
      0: gnu.emacs.gnus
I inadvertently typed `=', which caused GNUS to go off and collect
headers again for a *Subject* buffer.  Now, since I had finished
reading all articles in gnu.emacs.gnus, I would have presumed that it
would have come up with an empty *Subject* buffer, but instead I got
*all* articles currently in-spool, with them all marked D.

Is this what was intended in such a circumstance, or have I found a
bug?
