Unfortunately that didn't happen and no real discussion followed. It would be a good thing to have just one such mechanism: either the one Gnus uses, or doc-view. If we choose doc-view, then we should make Gnus use it. What are the arguments in favor of doc-view? Does someone want to argue in favor of the mechanism that Gnus uses?
