I've just committed several changes.  In it, I made the
tagline something like this (~~~~ indicate underlined part):

[1:text/plain Hide]
              ~~~~
[2:image/png Show Save:temp.png (XXkB)]
             ~~~~      ~~~~~~~~

and made the button label itself toggles between "Hide" and
"Show".

Another change is to bind tab and backtab simply to
forward-button and backward-button respectively because all
taglines has at least Hide or Show button now.

Please try this version for a while.  I'll update NEWS and
info when it is found that this version is good enough for
the next release.

By the way, I can't reproduce the incorrect setting of
buffer-file-coding-system.  Could you "recend" the
problematic mail, and let me know the subject line in
another mail so that I can identify that problematic mail.
