Other mail clients I use / have used normally manage to give the
temporary file the same filename as the attachment itself.

Storing separately has always seemed awkward to me. YMMV of course

Bug or otherwise, it is a *slight* inconvenience / irritation.

Whilst TB! names the temp file with a string of letters and
numbers, another mail client I use stores the temp file _with the
original attachment name_ in a temp folder named with a string of
letters/numbers.
