Gnus message mode used invisible text to hide headers while composing
a news/mail message. But it was changed to use narrowing instead:

| * message.el (message-header-format-alist): Add `From' in list
| so that it can be sorted.
| (message-fix-before-sending): Widen and sort headers before
| sending.
| (message-hide-headers): Use narrowing to hide headers by moving
| them to the top of the buffer and narrowing to the region
| underneath.
