Hmmm -- is that a planned feature? Current messages don't seem to have an
X-Rating (hmmm, that sounds kinda funny) unless I am missing something.
(Always possible!)

Anyway, that would be plenty good for me. 1) I don't tend to keep my
newsreader open for days, and it doesn't cache headers and 2) if I'm caught
up enough with a newsgroup that I'm reading new messages, I don't really
care about the ratings and will probably read them all. It's when there's a
backlog that they're really useful, and those messages will tend to already
have accumulated 90% of the rating they're ever going to get.
