Users in many groups I read have software that does not support
inclusion of referenced Messages-IDs when following up.  That means
that parent searches fail.  I handle this by an argG in the Subj
buffer, then an emacs reverse repexp search thru the Subj buffer, then
a g, then searching back to where I was.  This is awkward.  It would
be really nice to be able to search thru the subject line of all
articles, including unselected ones, for a target expression.  My LISP
is nonexistant.  I can cobble together pieces from examples, but this
one is over my head I am afraid.  If such capability is available, I
would appreciate hearing about it.  If it is not possible, could it be
considered for some future version?
