	Actually, seeing only the unread articles seems a very useful
functionality. What about binding something like this:

(defun my-gnus-topic-read-group ()
  (interactive)
  (gnus-topic-read-group (gnus-group-group-unread)))

to SPC in the *group* buff ?, this --I believe-- should be the fastest
way of doing it.
