This used to be even more confusing than that: previously, marked groups with no new messages were also hidden by default, meaning that if you did your search and then refreshed Gnus, you wouldn't even see that the group was marked, because it was hidden! All subsequent searches would only apply to the marked group(s), leading to some real sanity-doubting moments. At least marked groups are always visible now, regardless of their read-message status.
