1) After I've read all of the articles in a newsgroup and then quit
gnus, if I then go back to that newsgroup there doesn't seem to be any
way to go to the previous articles.  Is there some way that I don't
know about?

2) Articles with form feeds (^L) in them are displayed strangely (I
would say incorrectly).  In the mode line it says

	(GNUS Article)----All

and there's usually lots of vertical blank space because of the form
feed.  At first I thought it was a truncated article and was hitting
the "n" key to go to the next article but one day I hit the space bar
and discovered that there was more to the article.  Is there any way
to turn off this behavior?  I would think that the default would be
for it to be off so as to not confuse the unwary or that it should
somehow display something to let you know that there really is more.
I don't consider the *MORE* in the article to be sufficient; I was
assuming that the poster had put that in the article and then the rest
of the article had been truncated.  Perhaps just fixing the mode line
would be sufficient.
