3. C-x C-f test.tar.gz RET
4. RET ('tar-extract' to visit the first file)
-- garbage is displayed instead of ungzipped file content.
The reason why gzipped files can be visited from arc-mode archives is because
of this line in arc-mode.el in 'archive-extract' with this comment:
(defun archive-extract (&optional other-window-p event)
...
(archive-try-jka-compr) ;Pretty ugly hack :-(
...
To support gzipped files in tar archives as well, this patch
copies the same pretty ugly hack from arc-mode.el to tar-mode.el:

Since etc/TODO has the following entry:
** Give Tar mode all the features of Archive mode.
I committed the fix to master.
Also enabled Unicode support in archive/tar gz files,
and added tests.
