This is nice.  But I think that Gnus needs an article editing function
which edits the original representation.  Suppose you were using a
MIME package which transformed an important attached file into "Press
C-c C-c here to unpack file" or "[application/x-latex]" or something.
Not too good!

How about e editing the original article, and C-u e editing the
displayed version of it?
