That is assuming that the MUA gives you the option of specifying the
attachment MIME type. Many (including mine) do not. It would mean an
extra step - I'd have to gzip each patch or something like that. That
would be unfortunate,as well as imposing extra effort, because it would
make the patch not display inline in many MUAs (again, like mine).
