You read me that way?  We may disagree here or there, Hrvoje, but when I
write, I try to honestly express what I really think.  No dirty tricks...

If HTML looks ugly, you perceive it as some kind of a bug, and `K b' is
a way around that bug.  We are still in the realm of debugging.  If you
could just inform Gnus that W3 rendering does not interest you, then Gnus
could automatically use the alternative to select something you like more.
Best would be to improve the HTML renderer, of course.  (I would like it
speedier, for one, yet this is much more easily said than done! :-)
