Apparently not.

I'm not sure what to say except I'm constantly being surprised and
annoyed by the mouse-1 behavior in Gnus due to mouse-1-follows-link,
whereas it seems "natural" in other places; I suppose the odd delay
before activation also makes it more worse (there's a funny feeling of
"disconnect" between the click and the resulting action).

[To tell the truth what might be nicest for Gnus is to have a
right-click menu which would present the various alternate ways of
entering the group under the mouse pointer -- the current behavior of
`mouse-save-then-kill' doesn't seem particularly useful...
Unfortunately right-click menus are not an established standard in
Emacs, so I dunno if they'd fly here or not.]
