I've made some user interface changes for web training of spambayes.  I like 
them and can prepare a patch if there is general interest...

1) I added two check boxes to the review page, next to the "Previous, Refresh, 
Next" buttons.  The first is called "Trim Extremes" and the second is called 
"Rescore Messages".

2) I added two additional parameters to "html_ui" section of the options, they 
are 'ham_trim_level' and 'spam_trim_level'.  They have defaults of 0.02 and 
0.98 respectively.

3) "Trim Extremes", if checked removes messages that score closer to perfect 
than the respective trim level settings.  This "declutters" the review for 
training on unsures and "non-well" scored ham/spam.

4) "Rescore messages" displays recalculated scores for all the messages 
instead of the original scores.  This is useful for finding non-extreme 
messages in older untrained messages.  It's particularly valuable when you 
score periodically.  It means you don't score on many examples of the same 
spam received over a period of days...

I welcome any comments.

Thanks,
Brendon.
