I've got the same issue and have also wished that Yj had better
support for file attachments.  This is do-able with a text note in Yj
however.  What I do is to attach the file (via drag and drop) into a
text note.  It will show up as an icon in the Yj note. However, you
can't ctrl-click on it for a context menu to save-as as I would expect
or do anything else with the icon; it also doesn't show the name, just
the icon.  To get it back out of Yj, just drag the icon out of the
text note onto the desktop or other folder and the file will be
re-created.
Cheers,
Rhet
