The reason I came about the Gnus problem was when using it
to reply to some emails here and trying out the C-x p k and finding out
all my Gnus buffers were gone.

No. I don't use it. You should ask Manuel, who reported this in
the original discussion.

It's Philip's bug report. I don't use C-x p k, in fact I learned about it
here. It's then I started trying it, because in principle it is very
useful,
that I found out how broken it is for many other situations: ibuffer,
*gnus*,
and it's a shame we can't use it.

You are attributing ill-intent to me from a moral high-ground you can't
really
claim. I had no idea as to the authorship, so I can't have been engaging
in those
perfidious tactics. But do I apologize for the word "abomination". If it
helps
I'll show you round to plenty such things written by myself in the past.
I've explained to Philip objective reasons why I think evaluated
mini-languages are almost always inferior to a decent Lisp such as Elisp.
You could perfectly reasonably deprecate these two variables.

That automation is just as buggy as C-x p k, and should be fixed, but
the only such automation we know is C-x p k.

You sketched an untested code-less idea and I explained how flawed it was.
Not to mention it's just [insert acceptably derogatory word here] to protect
implementation details from misbehaving code that is under our control
and can just be fixed.
