Then the arguments couldn't contain " file://".  (And I didn't
want to require quoting of the filename because Attach: doesn't
and that works out well.)

The more I think about it, the more I like splitting the
filename and arg string into two separate headers.  The
arg string is optional so that one won't always be used.

Attach: generates full paths, too.  But the mhbuild code that
handles them doesn't care.  Nmh-mhbuild could behave the same
way, and be so documented.

That's not intended by me :-)  How about supporting both Attach:
and Nmh-Attach:?  Whatnow could generate the longer one.  That
plus one more strcasecmp() in mhbuild is all it would take to
make me happy.
