I just realised this isn't quite true; IMAP's EXPUNGE command will
remove all \Deleted messages, whereas gnus deletion usually depends on
an expirable mark but also some other criteria, so it will often leave
articles that have nonetheless been marked expirable. Is this the gap
between the two models and the reason for the current implementation?
