How about the following, binding the command to "+" (Sh-=):

,----
| (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map ?\+
|   (lambda ()
|     (interactive)
|     (gnus-configure-windows 'edit-article 'force)))
`----

I noticed that there's an existing window configuration called
"edit-article" that focuses just on the *Article* buffer.

Note that this focuses on the *Article* buffer, but it doesn't make sure
that the content of the *Article* buffer matches the message under the
point in the summary view. For that we'd need a call to
`gnus-summary-show-article', but that call may be superfluous when the
point hasn't moved since the last time the *Article* buffer was updated.
