So here's an example where I tried it out.  

(defun gnus-goto-article (message-id)
  (with-temp-buffer
    (erase-buffer)
    ;; Insert dummy article
    (insert (format "From nobody Tue Sep 13 22:05:34 2011\n\n"))
    (gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group message-id
     `(nndoc ,message-id
             (nndoc-address ,(current-buffer))
             (nndoc-article-type mbox))
     'activate
     (not    'quit-config)
     (not    'request-only)
     '(-1) ; 'select-articles
     (not    'parameters)
     0     ; ' number
     )
    (gnus-summary-refer-article message-id)
    (message "group from registry: %s" (gnus-registry-get-id-key message-id 'group))
    ))

I queried the registry at the point where I'd like to know the group of
that article.  Unfortunately, I get back nil.  And if I wanted to
conjure up an article number, well, it's -1, so that's not going to be
much help, is it?

It seems like this shouldn't be so hard...
