The current situation of not being able to delete the attachment of signed messages is problematic for the case where the attachment contains data that must be deleted, e.g. for legal reasons. Right now I am forced to delete the entire email. I'd much rather accept a "broken signature" warning (with an indication like "you removed the attachment, hence the signature can no longer be verified") or so, that would still be better than having to delete the entire email.
