I'd like my subscription list to specify not only newsgroups, but also system and system!user lists. For instance, I'd like to see every article originating on my site, and every article from ulysses!smb, even if they're not in the newgroups I normally read. I skimmed through the code for readr.c -- it's really, uh, amazing. Does anyone know any E-Z hacks to do this, or would I (hypothetically) have to roll up my sleeves and add to the already incomprehensible intricacies of readr.c?

I wish news groups could be aliased in the same way that mail userids
are aliased. If I post to "system", I want the news item to go to the
local "system" group, and also to group "wat.math.system" that is distributed
to other Waterloo sites.
