[[info:gnus#Agent Expiry]] sez:

    |    Note that other functions, e.g. `gnus-request-expire-articles',
    | might run `gnus-agent-expire' for you to keep the agent synchronized
    | with the group.
    `----

but there's no documentation on gnus-request-expire-articles that I can
find.  IMO It either should be documented as a user-facing-function or,
if it's an implementation detail, not mentioned in the documentation.
