You could also (setq gnus-use-cache t) and then tick the interesting
messages.  Is there a specific reason for you not to do that?

You say that you're editing messages.  What kind of editing is that?
Surely, just putting them in the cache wouldn't be enough when you
want to edit them.

But OTOH, why not allow editing of articles which are in the cache?
That might be a useful feature.
