It's possible Andy was waiting for me to finish my *-retrieve-headers
patch, allowing backends to return headers directly, before he merged
nnselect, as that patch affects how that backend works. Either way, I
really need to take half a day and finish that patch (it's delicate, and
needs some consideration). And Andy should be the one to do the nnselect
merge.
