gnus-article-hide-citation `W W c' hides the citation and displays a
button (`[+]') to toggle the cited text instead:

,----[ (setq gnus-treat-hide-citation-display-some-lines nil) ]
| foo
| 
| [+]
| 
| bar
`----

Nice feature! It would be even more nice if it would display the first
and last words (or lines) of the omitted text. Maybe similar to this:

,----[ (setq gnus-treat-hide-citation-display-some-lines 1) ]
| foo
| 
| > First word of cited text [...] last word of the cited text. 
| 
| bar
`----

(with `[...]' buttonized). Or, customizable by the value (a number) of
`gnus-treat-hide-citation-display-some-lines':

,----[ (setq gnus-treat-hide-citation-display-some-lines 2) ]
| foo
| 
| > First line of cited text .................................
| > [+]
| > .............................. last line of the cited text. 
| 
| bar
`----

It's just an idea. Dunno if it's too complicated to code.

Bye, Reiner.
