Yup. Hm. Would splitting code want the body deMIMEified?
I guess some text analysis splitters would want to base64 decoding to
happen of course. I wonder how much deMIMEification is wanted.
Really, only the splitter functions can know this (some splitters
might want raw MIME, some decoded base64 but not other MIME-decoding,
some might want everything MIME related to be removed) so it should
perform it itself, or Gnus should provide a framework for deciding
what should be done for each splitter function. Anyway, until that
happens, copying the raw body is probably mostly harmless.

I installed it.
