Does a user really have to write custom elisp to view a gzipped or
even a tar.gz attachment without saving? Seems this should be built in.

Uhm -- you can view a gzipped file -- `i' over the button will insert
it in the buffer. Of course, it'll look like junk, though. :-)
Perhaps that earlier idea of writing "chains of viewers" would be nice
anyway, but it's kinda outside the scope of the MIME support. The
MIME content-types do not nest.

This is only useful if you are into devil worship ( he he) looks like
glossolalia.
