Good point. I must confess that I never read the issue page so carefully. :-) I think in this case it will always be possible to find a way, usually sending the document directly to the QA engineer or developer working on it. Perhaps we also can establish a process that allows to attach bigger files if the said QA engineer or developer approves the big attachment. This will prevent IZ from being flooded with big files without control by still allowing to send large bug documents.
