Both ideas are nice.  I guess I'd prefer the later, if both are
feasible.

Is it possible to use the menus without prefix if the cursor is on a
specific part in the article buffer?  E.g. now, I can use `o' or `|'
on a part without giving the number of the part explicitly, if the
cursor is on the corresponding button.

BTW, for `gnus-summary-repair-multipart' I think we should add a
`y-or-no-p' because it may *destroy* an article (on writable back
ends), e.g. if the original article wasn't b0rked.

Bye, Reiner.
