I can type `1 g' and then type in a charset to view a message using a
different charset.
But what if it's a multipart message, and a part says "Content-type:
text/plain; charset=foo" where the charset is wrong?

It is supposed to ignore any charset.
Another way to show the part with the specified charset is to type
`1 i' on the MIME button (valid since Oct 20).

Hm? Oh, I think you mean that `1 g' on the message will display all
parts in that charset, regardless what the Content-type header says.
So if there are several text/plain parts, all of them will be
displayed with the same charset. Good. That surely works for many
situations.

Nifty. But not so nice if it's text/html, instead.
Do you think it would be hard to implement `1 RET' or something on the
MIME button which allowed the user to enter a charset? Or `c' which
means `view this part with a different charset', in analogy to `t'.
Or even `1 t' means let the user enter both content-type and charset.

Done. Use `C' instead of `c', which means gnus-mime-copy-part.
