Perhaps you can convince Gnus to use mailcap.  Some potential mailcap entries:

  text/html; /usr/bin/html2text '%s'; copiousoutput
  text/html; /usr/bin/links -dump '%s'; copiousoutput

mm-display part seems to handle this properly (when w3 *isn't*
installed, anyway); see my other post in this thread.

This seems more elegant that putting text/html-specific code in Gnus.

(Or, maybe I don't know what I'm talking about...)
