Currently there is
C-c C-s C-a	gnus-summary-sort-by-author
C-c C-s C-c	gnus-summary-sort-by-chars
C-c C-s C-d	gnus-summary-sort-by-date
C-c C-s TAB	gnus-summary-sort-by-score
C-c C-s C-l	gnus-summary-sort-by-lines
C-c C-s C-n	gnus-summary-sort-by-number
C-c C-s C-o	gnus-summary-sort-by-original
C-c C-s C-r	gnus-summary-sort-by-random
C-c C-s C-s	gnus-summary-sort-by-subject
C-c C-s C-t	gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient

Well, there also should be
C-c C-s C-f	gnus-summary-sort-by-fill-in-your-favorite-header

Which prompts for and perhaps tab expands a header name.

That way, the user, without needing to write any code, could e.g.,
search for all the messages with a Gnus-Warning header. Thus grouping
together all the messages he wants to delete from bug #32383 .

(And even if Gnus-Warning isn't a real header, it would still be handy
to have this command.)

Not quite what you asked for, but that particular use case can be done
with 'gnus-summary-limit-to-extra'

Yeah, I think that's sufficient here, and I'm closing this bug report.
