I don't think so.  It's probably more of a Windows/Unix culture mixup.
Windowsey mail reader are geared to creating messages that first have
all the text written by the sender, then the signature, then quoted
messages, attachments, and several virii.  Unixey mail readers have
quoted text interspersed with new text, and then the signature comes
last.  For a Unixey mail reader, it makes sense to put the
"attachment" before the signature, for a Windowsey mail reader, it
does not.
