Some attachment types are widespread, but just glorified Signature 
files -- like vCards -- or auto-handled -- like PKI.  Flagging them
would just add clutter.

Anything else is worth noting, though.  (Except maybe those dopey
gif's).  How about a config item to specify attachment types not 
worth flagging ?
