Message has two ways of returning to the caller (while not sending
anything).  message-dont-send runs RETURN-ACTION (which is presumably
what Rmail uses to close the frame etc), while message-kill-buffer does
not run RETURN-ACTION.

I don't see how to reconcile that on the Message side.

Rmail could set message-kill-actions to whatever it wants, which is why
I think this is an Rmail bug.
