Actually, if I understand correctly.. You can choose posting styles from a list
on the fly. See:

,----[ C-h f gnus-summary-mail-other-window RET ]
| gnus-summary-mail-other-window is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-msg.el'.
| (gnus-summary-mail-other-window &optional ARG)
| 
| Start composing a mail in another window.
| Use the posting of the current group by default.
| If ARG, don't do that.  If ARG is 1, prompt for group name to find the
| posting style.
