Automatically opening attachments is a convenience for the user, too.
That doesn't make it a good idea.
Nobody is understanding what I'm saying. Probably because my subject
is a little misleading. It isn't "automatic" in that it happens
without the user telling it to. The user still is alerted and has a
clear understanding of what is happening. That is what makes it
different than things that just spontaneously happen. It's totally
unrelated to attachments opening themselves.
But if such a feature were to exist, I would think it should be done
through a special API like authentication and not "automatically" by
calling listen() like I previously suggested. But I'm not going to
push this further anyway because I don't really care very much. I just
think it would be a nice, convenient feature.
