    Why not?  More specifically, what do you think would break if we did
    something along the lines of:

       (define-obsolete-function-alias 'mail-mode 'message-mode)

I may need to maintain Emacs again; past history shows other
maintainers come and go.  If that happens, I want to have Mail mode,
not depend on something that is part of Gnus.

Please don't mess this up.


I am considering moving some code (including mml) outside Gnus so that
Gnus will not be an issue for its future maintenance.  (I've done that
to other packages before.)
