True.  Which is why I thought the intent was to create something
exceedingly simple, e.g.:

  . a single command to attach a file, perhaps with C-u that allows
    finer control on MIME headers (see Jason's proposal not long ago)

  . a single command to save one attachment to a disk file, perhaps
    with C-u that would run a program on the data rather than saving
    it

Anything more complex than that is really going to resemble existing
code in mml and elsewhere, and is not worth another from-scratch
effort, IMO.
