I think that might be even more confusing than it currently is...

You can add random elisp forms to the buffer configuration.  This is
the default value of the `article' config:

(gnus-add-configuration 
    '(article
     (cond 
      (gnus-use-picons
       '(frame 1.0
	       (vertical 1.0
			 (summary 0.25 point)
			 (if gnus-carpal '(summary-carpal 4))
			 (article 1.0))
	       (vertical '((height . 5) (width . 15)
			   (user-position . t)
			   (left . -1) (top . 1))
			 (picons 1.0))))
      (gnus-use-trees
       '(vertical 1.0
		  (summary 0.25 point)
		  (tree 0.25)
		  (article 1.0)))
      (t
       '(vertical 1.0
		 (summary 0.25 point)
		 (if gnus-carpal '(summary-carpal 4))
		 (if gnus-use-trees '(tree 0.25))
		 (article 1.0)))))

Just add checks for group names (or whatever).  Go wild.  :-)
