Attached is a patch against current CVS which implements the above
workaraound, so that hidden citations don't shadow the first character
of the visible text. I'd appreciate if others could test if this patch
breaks anything with hiding citations. Please note that I had to remove
the explicit newlines at the end of
gnus-cited-opened/closed-text-button-line-format; they will now be put
there implicitly. This is an incompatible change, but I'd say a rather
small (and only cosmetic) one.

If no one objects in the next few days, I'd like to commit this. I will
then also fix the doc string for gnus-article-toggle-cited-text.
