As I've already said, I am +1 on this.

Most mail programs these days should be able to view attachments, and if
anyone uses a mailer that doesn't I think it is about time to upgrade to one.

I find it a lot easier to deal with patches sent as attachments, as mailers
tend to word wrap and otherwise ruin "inline" texts but they do not tend to do
that as frequently in attachments.
