        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: NOR

It would be very useful to have a search widget show up for adding attachments
while you are composing a new message.

If Nepomuk is enabled then it should be easy to perform that search.




Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
Some UI options in order of preference
1) text input widget always at the bottom of the compose window where I can
type the filename or directory and a list of matching paths dynamically pops up
above
2) Pressing "ctrl-a" would pop up a search dialogue at the bottom of the
compose window
3) A "search" button in the file selection dialogue when I click the "Attach"
button
4) Put the compose text box and an "attachment manager" section in tabs.  I
would bring up the compose window and be able to type as I have in the past,
but if I wanted to add an attachment I'd click the "attachments" tab and be
able to browse the filesystem dolphin-style (which would include searching
options).  Any file I wanted to attach I would drag over to a list widget on
the left-hand side.  To continue writing the email I would switch back to the
"message" tab
