I'm glad somebody likes it - this presumably means that the author
will continue to support it and make improvements. Aside from the
fact that I seem to be the only person who finds it terminally
unstable, I hope the author will do something about the performance.

If I ask XRN to do a rescan, it takes a couple of seconds. The News takes
minutes (effectively) to do the same thing.
