I suppose I could live with this - but not actively support it - if the
stripping was limited to abusively large attachments - say ones over 5Mb
or thereabouts.

+0.9; maybe set the limit a bit lower, for those who still have network
capacity issues. However, it would be extremely inconvenient to have small
attachments stripped.

But otherwise it's a TERRIBLE idea, and will simply result in
everyone including the draft or whatever in the primary message text in
order to avoid this nonsense, which results in a degradation of list
quality for all concerned.

+1

+1 to it's a terrible idea.
