This makes sense.

I will try things outs with the patch you have sent below and will feed
back any interesting behaviour.

I guess gnus should either allow point to be placed in the article
buffer using gnus-buffer-configuration, with appropriate corrections to
gnus code to support this, *or* it should disallow this setting?  At the
very least, I guess the documentation may make some mention of the
restriction?

In any case, thanks for the explanation and the patch.  None of this is
critical to the performance of gnus, only to my idiosyncratic wishes for
symmetry!

Thanks again,
eric
