Subject: article titles with slashes don't get created properly by mvs
If an article title contains a slash, mvs treats the slash as a directory delimiter and creates subdirectories. mvs clean, at least, is confused by this, although commit seems to work properly. It's also confusing for the user, I think. Simply URL-escaping the slash would solve the problem. This is perl, v5.8.6 built for i386-openbsd-3.8.

I personally like the current behaviour. I'd like to hear more feedback, but I think that if I do change the way slashes work it will have to be an option, becuase I want my own installation to keep doing what it does now. -mark
