There are issues if people have the log message in the attachment as
well.  And of course there is still the prime reason why attachments
are a no-no - most mailers won't quote them so commenting on them is
hard when discussing things.

Git has some limited abilities to handle MIME messages since quite a
while though.  But quilt which is the heart of how I manage the queue
tree doesn't.
