I'm afraid I have to disagree here.  `M-x gnus-no-server' has been
long advocated as a way to, for instance, read your mail only
(provided you keep the mail groups on levels 1 and 2.)

If you intend to change the meaning of `gnus-no-server', you have to
provide an alternative functionality for `M-x gnus-no-server' used to
do.
