When I compose a message and add some files as attachments those files have 
their "Content-Disposition" set to "inline" instead of "attachment".

The effect is that images are automatically displayed by the recipient.
If it was "attachment", the recipient should click on the icon representing
the file (= what is done for example when the file is a .zip or any non-image
format).

It would be nice to have the choice, for example in Options->Format, to have
the disposition "inline" or "attachment"

Reproducible: Always
