I believe `C-c C-v' qualifies.  I used it on this message.

These are bogus "SHOULDs" anyhow -- I wouldn't want Gnus to do these
things.  (I often post "empty" notes to our internal newsgroups
jprc.support.* whose entire [still very useful] content is in the
Subject -- status messages about things that have been fixed, changed,
or are otherwise in flux.)
