Since this stores the group name and the message-id, it should work across
different Gnus sessions.

That makes sense, since the link refers to the group.

I believe the Gnus registry can keep track of the message ID --> group
mapping, so org-mode could use this if the article isn't found in the
expected group and the user has the registry enabled.

I don't use org-mode or the registry, so I'll let others respond if
there are further questions.

Can you show us what an org-mode hyperlink looks like?  I.e. what
information does it store?  nnimap uses the IMAP server UIDs as article
numbers, so those will be the same for the different instances of Gnus.
So I'm guessing it will work, as long as you give the server the same
name in Gnus on the two machines.

I would use something like this frequently.  A couple of examples:

- annual events, such as anniversaries and birthdays.  I'd like
  a SCHEDULED item a week or two ahead telling me to buy a
  present
- every month there's a banking transaction I do that I'd like
  SCHEDULED

In addition, there are periodic events I have where the current diary
support is fine, but even for this information I would rather keep it
in org format and mixed with relevant org files.
