What would be the possibility of associating  a "Distribution Grade-of-Service"
with each article or news group, with appropriate matching entries in the
sys file?  This would allow groups or articles to not be propagated to sites
that do not support that grade of service (Internet vs. UUCP).

Yes, this would be more overhead at batching time for sites that want to 
support it.
