You can edit the mml directly... there is an attribute on each mime part
that sets the disposition.  You would just need to change the
'disposition=attachment' to 'disposition=inline' before sending.

It would be useful to make prefix-arg mean 'inline' for
message-mime-attach-file.  Or when the prettier keybindings, etc, come down 
the pike.
