Two more issues related to that:

- "(gnus-summary-show-article '(16))" will trigger
  gnus-select-article-hook, so to call the former in the
  latter, I had to wrap that in "(let
  (gnus-select-article-hook) […])".  Is there a better/re-
  commended way to solve that?

- gnus-summary-show-article will switch to the *Summary*
  buffer, so in "(gnus-with-article-buffer
  (gnus-summary-show-article '(16)) (something-else))"
  something-else will be executed in the *Summary* buffer,
  therefore I had to wrap that in another
  gnus-with-article-buffer form.  However, when executed in
  the *Article* buffer, C-u C-u g will stay there.  Is this
  a bug?
