I think this is something that should be easily customizable, and I
don't count putting all these % escapes in a longish string as being
easy.

Hm.

OT1H, IWBNI there was a variable gnus-summary-display-user-function
which could be set to something which gives us %n and to something
else which gives us %f and then a % escape which uses that.

OTOH, down this path (creating lots and lots of customization
variables like this) lies madness.

Does this mean you can't have your cake and eat it, too?
