Very nice, Keith. Thanks again!

I've pushed this one out as well.

While we're talking about saving attachments, here are some additional
things I'd like for anybody that cares to attempt to implement them:

1. A binding to save all attachments to a single directory, (could be on
   'W' for example).

2. The ability to save an individual attachment based on a button.

3. The ability to view an individual attachment based on a button.

Parts (2) and (3) might end up wanting to be integrated via a new
command in the notmuch command-line program for extracting a numbered
mime part from the message. That command would then be usable by the
various interfaces that don't have all the functionality that emacs has
already builtin for handling MIME messages.
