You've lost me here.  How does defining message/rfcM let you deal with
UTF-8 headers in e-mail?

Now, mail<->news is easy.  Moderators would need e-mail clients that
understand message/rfcM, but other than that there are no transport
issues.

This sounds like you're talking about encapsulating submissions to
moderators rather than gatewaying them.  This breaks almost all existing
moderation software.
