[Gordon Ball <chronitis@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have written a brief implementation of this feature. See
lp:~chronitis/gtg/file-attach for code.

file://... URLs are recognised (or at least, recognised as easily as
http URLs are). The file URL is then reformatted as a short name
(file:///home/user/file.ext -> file.ext) and the appropriate icon
displayed next to it. The link can be clicked to open the file in the
default program (using xdg-open, as with other URLs).

File links are serialized as file://... URLs for storage and converted
back on loading.

The automatic icon picking introduces a dependency on gnome.ui and
gnomevfs. There are probably workarounds if this is unwanted.

This approach
    * supports drag and drop of files
    * introduces no new elements into the storage XML format
    * is slightly more friendly than displaying file://... URLs in full (which can be done with about 3 line's worth of changes)
    * requires no additional UI elements
