C'mon. You're splitting hairs here. TM has been practically the de facto
standard for MIME since day 1 when it come in picture. Just like Gnus is
the de facto standard for News reading.

TM has supported every major MUA platform and it should be treated as respectfully
as GNUS in spite of the decisions of not integrating TM into Gnus. There are lot
of people that use TM with gnus and continue to do so as long as it works.

I also agree with steve, that SPC/BACKSPACE should go to next/prev mime section.
