But what's even more frightening: The default value of
`gnus-registry-extra-entries-precious', (mark), always behaved like ()
and thus never worked as intended, so it seems that registry marks
always where broken with the defaults.  Looks like nobody ever tried to
use them, or all people gave up without writing a bug report.

Should we even make a NEWS entry along the fix saying that the feature
can actually be used now?
