The user would, would s/he? I don't think so. As I said, by doing so the
icons are now strewn all over the place or are hidden from view at the bottom
of the message with no ready way to access them. This forces the user to do
more work to know they are there much less find them. "But the message list
has an attachment icon". Yeah, it also can be turned /OFF/. I don't think
most people would appreciate the mixture of text with random icons. I know I
certainly don't and I /have/ used products that use it. Hated every one of
them.
