Yup, I quite agree.  The fact that this continues to be on the "too hard" list may be one of the reasons that Thunderbird is apparently the default email client Ubuntu 11.10.
The nuisance part of that is that all my calendar, contacts, and so on and so forth would need migrating if I opted to go the Thunderbird way.  Let alone what happens to syncing contacts via Ubuntu One.
Given my 'druthers, I'druther stay with Evolution, so I guess I'll still be saving pictures the hard way, or by forwarding them to my webmail.  Either way is not really 21st Century.

Title:
  User unable to save attached/embedded images

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  New
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  User received email with embedded images as forwarded message,
  evolution 2.30.3 rendered images correctly but didn't allow user to
  save images.  When selecting image, user were only prompted with
  context menu option of coping image or saving whole email but not the
  image alone. Coping option didn't allow user to paste image in to
  Desktop folder.

  Expected results:
  When same email was forwarded to Mac OSX Mail client, an attachments were detected correctly and allowed user to easily extract images in form of attachment. Same process should be applied to Evolution mail client.
