Part of the reason I was surprised here is that the various
`gnus-level-*' variables, far from being user options, are actually
defined with `defconst', which would indicate that Gnus didn't want you
fooling with them. It's possible that was done so that the variables are
marked as "special", but defcustom would have the same effect.

Anyway, it's encouraging to know that it's been working correctly for
some people for a while.
