Not only to load gnus-dired, but also to call `turn-on-gnus-dired-mode'
on a Dired buffer to enable `C-c C-m C-a'. This is too inconvenient.

If you want to create a new command `message-dired', then please also
implement a better UI, e.g. `C-c C-m C-a' in the Message buffer could
pop-up a Dired buffer where after marking files you could type `C-c C-c'
to close it and add marked files as attachments to the current Message
buffer.
