[I think in this case FSF for being a changing target to stay
compatible with and ignoring the prior mule implementation in Xemacs.
However it does't really matter.]

Sigh, it just that
there is

binary    -- Fully transparant
raw-text  -- just EOL conversion

These work in both Emacsen.

On FSF Emacs no-conversion == binary and the documentation talks about 
no-conversion in that context.

On FSF XEmacs no-conversion == raw-text and the documentation talks about 
no-conversion in that context (minibuffer also shows the raw text
coding system as NoConv).

So if we could just get both .texi files to just talk about binary and 
raw-text and let no-conversion die that would be very nice.

Jan

P.S. To add to your pain there is also EOL conversion in non-mule
Emacsen (for DOS/Win support).
