Yes, but the only things that Message looks at are <part> and
<multipart>, so it's not that big a deal, I think.

(Beware when responding to this message, though -- Gnus will think
that that <part> thing up there is a part.  Er.  Perhaps the quoting
mechanism should auto-quote these things?  Or something?  This is
getting complicated.  :-)

That would be a possibility, but I'd like things to look all purty.
