Documentation/autogenerated or something else that makes it clear it is not to be mixed with static documents. Documentation/api doesn't imply that.

GNUS can deal with MIME just fine, it doesn't make it less painful though. base64 is the real problem since it relies on the mime heards and cannot be decoded if those are not in place.
