This is very handy!

One minor thing I noticed is that if you do any re-ordering of
messages in summary buffer, i.e. threading, sort by score,
etc, you may want turn them off before moving the messages. This is to
make sure when you tell Gnus to fetch last N messages, it gets the
last N most recently arrived messages, not the last N messages in
summary display.

To achieve this, I'll set gnus-show-threads, gnus-select-group-hook to
nil before calling gnus-group-read-group.
