What's wrong with using the name (?) of the method.  (I'm not sure if
we call it the "name" of the method, because I couldn't find the
correct term in the manual.)

I have ...

,----[ <f1> v gnus-select-method RET ]
| Its value is (nntp "localhost")
`----

,----[ <f1> v gnus-secondary-select-methods RET ]
| ((nnimap "kiz"
| 	 (nnimap-address "imap.kiz.somewhere.invalid") [...]
|  (nnml "personal" [...]
|  (nnml "news"     [...]
|  (nnml "archive"  [...]
`----

... and in my Group buffer, I have:

        0: personal:Some.One
        0: kiz:INBOX
        0: kiz:Sent
        0: kiz:Trash
       29: gmane.emacs.devel
       28: gmane.emacs.bugs
        0: news:comp.emacs
        0: archive:gmane.emacs.gnus.general

The relevant format char in my `gnus-group-line-format' is:

,----
| %c    Short (collapsed) group name.  See `gnus-group-uncollapsed-levels'.
`----

However, I can't use the short name to `j'ump to the group or do any
other operations.

Bye, Reiner.
