Why? Is there any need to reinvent the wheel and add even more
memory usage into the picture that way?

There is. gnus-auto-select-next. Mine is set to 'quietly.

GNUS Article now displays the current group name, the range of
"active" articles (read by NNTP recently) and the current article
number. I wish there was a way to get the time string and Mail notice
into the Article modeline.

Agreed, and it doesn't. It gives as much of the Subject line as it
can fit.

I have a hook for this but I am in a hurry to get home and eat. I'll
be posting it later.

(insert (gnus-version)): You're running GNUS 3.10 with NNTP 3.7
A lot of these things have been remedied in 3.10 and Masanobu has
indicated that even more neat/nicer/nifty things are in the next
release.
