Query next article - feature suggestion

Quoting from the manual:

| 6.84 query_next_article
|
| Type: integer
| Default: 1
|
| When you use article_page_down (default binding: space) while you are
| already at the end of an article, slrn moves to the next unread
| article. If this variable is set to 0, this will happen automatically;
| if it is 1, you will be asked to confirm that you want to select the
| new article.


I set this variable to 0 (no confirmation before reading the next
article), but I think it could be useful if there were a third possible
state, where slrn will ask for confirmation *only* if the present
article is displayed in full.

What typically happens with short articles (to me at least) is that I
press space thinking that I'm about to scroll the article and slrn will 
jump elsewhere in the thread.

Yes, I know: I should notice the (All) at the bottom right, but
sometimes I don't...

Cheers,
Andrew
