WRT this, `K O' and `K d' behave like the other `K ...' commands
(gnus-article-pipe-part, gnus-article-inline-part).

We could add `gnus-summary-show-article' in
`gnus-article-part-wrapper' to display the right article:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

 (defun gnus-article-part-wrapper (n function &optional no-handle)
+  (gnus-summary-show-article)
   (with-current-buffer gnus-article-buffer
     (when (> n (length gnus-article-mime-handle-alist))
       (error "No such part"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But I'm not sure if the _not_ selecting the article was intended
behavior (i.e. this change might break other usage).  Opinions?

Bye, Reiner.
