Does this function correctly under XEmacs both with and without
file-coding and with or without MULE?

Will it cope correctly with the soon-to-land Unicode internals of the
ben-mule branch of XEmacs, with more native support for non-MULE
internal encodings?

Does it cope with Emacs of those varieties?

Also, how does it interact with the Latin Unity package for XEmacs and
with the unity packages for Emacs21?

Is this only within the scope of Gnus message buffers, Gnus message and
display buffers or universally?
