I found GA not to be as "stable" as gnus-posting-style.  With the latter,
I always have the right reply address.  Gnus alias was somehow worse at
guessing this, though I don't remember the details any longer.

In my setup I can change the From-profile via C-c p, much like GA.  I
dream of adding such functionality to Gnus-proper one day (maybe after you
replaced nnoo with eieio :).
