Well, we could add a `gnus-parameter-function' variable to be plugged in
here that would take a group name and return the group parameters. 

    (dolist (info newsrc)
      (let ((group (gnus-info-group info))
	    (params (gnus-info-params info)))
	;; For all GROUPs that match the specified GROUPS

That should allow for great flexibility for the user to choose where the
parameters come from...
