Renaming is even harder than that.  Suppose that a rename
control message were added to 2.11.  Now what do we do about
(1) messages currently circulating around the net with the old name?
(2) messages in the (new) spool dir containing the old name in
    the headers (which will be used for followups)?
(3) people with the old name in their .newsrc file?
(4) documentation that describes the old name?
(5) people who "know" about the old name in their heads?
