This won't help unless there is an actual non-HTML alternative
somewhere.  If you get the message that contains HTML only, Gnus has
no choice but to display it.  mm-discouraged-alternatives seems to
work for me.

I think one way to treat HTML expansion would be to treat all HTML
stuff as attachments (your solution A.)  There's no way to do that in
Gnus currently.  I think.
