Well, it works but of all the cool things I did, I'm
not that happy with this particular hack, for the
reasons mentioned in the comments:
1. The visual switch between buffers - this is
something that is done for the human eye, switching
back and forth so a computer can do its (supposedly
background) job doesn't make sense.
2. The setup of *three* hooks to do one thing: once
there is a change, update the variable.

The strange (?) thing is, I don't understand any of
that. Are we using the same stuff to begin with, or am
I just plain stupid?
You can check out my Gnus setup (for mails, mailing
lists, and Usenet) here [1]. If you can confirm we are
using the same stuff I'll make a second attempt to
understand your solution :)
