Well, I don't think just returning marker positions would solve the
problem completely.  I mean, charsets are decoded and various other
funny stuff is done at various points in time.  I actually think that
the way to sign stuff like that is to let MML generate MIME, and then
parse the MIME (`mm-dissect-buffer') and work based on that.  Er.  Or
something along those lines.
