For a particular group, I want to have the backend's article number in
the summary line, so I put the point over the group name in the *Group*
buffer and press 'G c' to customize the group properties. I go down to
'Variables' so that I can set the variable gnus-summary-line-format, and
enter the following:

Variables:
Set variables local to the group you are entering. [More]
[INS] [DEL] Variable: gnus-summary-line-format
            Value: "%U%R[%N]%z%I%(%[%4L: %-20,20n%]%) %s"
[INS]

and click on done up at the top.

Does this look right? It doesn't do what I want...

There's a \n lacking at the end of the line, and you probably want to
move the %N after all the tick marks, to avoid confusion.
