Sure, that would help.  You'd still have to edit the newsrc for those.

So, try this.  Make gnus write out a .newsrc as well as a .eld.  Edit
the .newsrc (easy with a quick macro and M-x apply).  Restart gnus.
Gnus should read both, with the article numbers in the .newsrc taking
precedence (because it's newer).
