What's wrong with using the filter-entry function from the compose menu
(bound to F by default, apparently)?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean with "in situ", but if you can
explain why "filter-entry" isn't enough for you, well maybe we can go
from there. :-) As far as I know, there is no actual way to get the
temporary filename of the attachement.
