Sorry, but my *Group* buffer looks like this:
--- cut ---
[ Gnus -- 6198 ]
[ Mail -- 3906 ]
* 0 u 10 t Mailbox
1 u 1 t ntknow
% 36 u 0 t newsticker
--- cut ---
I don't know if that is what jonas wanted, but I get this behaviour via
`gnus-group-line-format': "%m%M%S%4y u %4i t %P%G%O %D\n"
If Jonas seeks for shorthands for groups, I don't know how to get them,
either.

Oh, no. This would be so different from the way that the rest of
Emacs works. I don't know how to explain it, but it just feels wrong.
When you hit C-x C-f and enter a filename, Emacs doesn't ask you
either which file you meant. (Actually, the completion facility is a
way to do that, but your suggestion circumvents the completion
facility.)

The server part could be moved to the end of the group name to make
this work. A command could get the list of normally qualified group
names, reverse the qualifications, prompt for a name from that list,
re-reverse the qualification, and then hand the resulting group name
to gnus-group-jump-to-group.
