I don't like this, because if one day, I set pipe_decode, things may
fail to work, and I won't remember why.

I think so too. The best would be something in Mutt, like local variables
(something to save the environment) or options to pipe, e.g.
|{pipe_decode} and |{nopipe_decode}
so that the pipe always behaves as if pipe_decode were set or unset.

Before d/l'ing it, does it convert QP to 8bit in attachments too?
I ask this, because I use emil (with procmail) to convert QP to 8bit,
but when there is QP in attachments, it isn't converted.
