I despise this aspect of Notes.  I would hate it less if there was
an alt-key combination I could use to get the attach dialog, but I
think I can only access it through the menu.

I also hate the fact that it closes the attach dialog after I've
selected a file.  Whenever I need to attach several files and they
are in different directories, I either end up zipping them even if
they are tiny, or copying them to one folder so I can shift-attach
them.

I also wonder why the default for clicking the X on a 'New Memo' is
'Send and save a copy' instead of 'Discard changes'.
