I haven't experienced your scenario. 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'.

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. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
