This is really nice!  I can get this to work for my current server by
setting `gnus-refer-article-method' to:

  (current (nnir))

[However, I note that the customization interface doesn't give me any way
to produce that value]

The first problem with this is that it searches all the groups (of which
I happen to have many).  Since I'm using Gmail's servers, there's one
group (called [Gmail]/All Mail) where it can find every message.  Is
there a way to get it to look in just that one group?

Secondly, I couldn't figure out what should go in the element after nnir
if I wanted to specify that server directly.  Here's my
`gnus-select-method':

  (nnimap "BoostPro" (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com") (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnimap-authenticator login) (nnimap-nov-is-evil t))

Lastly, is there any way to get this lookup to try the agent first?  If
I have the article on my local machine and I'm disconnected, it seems
like I ought to be able to get to it still.

All assistance greatly appreciated,
