Should be doable, but it'd probably be processor intensive.  I thought
about doing something like that but haven't.

No, but I've thought about that too.  I do something similar with the
X-Spam-Status line, though, that you should be able to adapt:

;; mark messages with X-ping in them
(setq gnus-extra-headers '(To X-Spam-Status)
(defun gnus-user-format-function-S (header)
  (let ((head (gnus-extra-header 'X-Spam-Status header)))
    (if (string-match "autolearn=\\(ham\\|spam\\|no\\)" head)
	(substring head (match-beginning 1) (match-end 1))
      "")
    ))

I put the spam/ham/unknown markings at the end to trigger my summary
highlight expressions so that the first 6 characters (the date for me)
of the line are highlighted with a particular color if I need to train
spamassain on the message.  Gives a nice visual queue.  You could do
something similar with scoring I'm sure.

(I also highlight the baysean score in the article buffer with green,
but I've wanted to move it to the summary buffer as well but haven't yet).
