Another option is to create your own format-function to handle this.  Since
I use BBDB to extract user names for mail, the tricks to show the To:
information in some groups is more difficult.  

This is what my setup looks like.  Instead of %-20,20f, I have %-20,20ud to
indicate use of the gnus-user-format-function-d.  The function simply
checks the group name and does either gnus-summary-from-or-to-or-newsgroups
(the %f behavior) or bbdb/gnus-summary-get-author (the %uB behavior).

(setq  gnus-summary-line-format "%U%R%z%I%(%[%4L: %-20,20ud%]%) %s\n")
(defun gnus-user-format-function-d (group-tmp)
  "Decide to use either the BBDB function or the %f form."
  (let ((group gnus-newsgroup-name))
    ;; Set the Summary Line Format special for outgoing archives
    (if (and group
	     (string-match "\\(drafts\\|misc-\\(mail\\|news\\)\\)" group))
	;; gnus-tmp-header is defined in the calling function
	(gnus-summary-from-or-to-or-newsgroups group-tmp)
      (bbdb/gnus-summary-get-author group-tmp)
    ))
  )
