I'd prefer the latter, too. This also would allow just to specify *++* to
create a new attachment. The actual filename would be inserted on upload.
Maybe this is much easier to implement, because I guess it's not that easy
to decide in a SwikiModule if a file exists in an FileServerModule that
was uploaded via a MultiPartPostModule. OTOH, the MultiPartPostModule
must inform the SwikiModule about the uploaded file anyway ...

Jochen, did you touch that module communication area lately?
