Well, not everyone obviously as I don't, so please be careful speaking
quantifiers.
I apply inline patches with `git am -' by piping messages or attachments
to the command directly from my e-mail client (with its `Pipe' command),
so I don't care how any message or attachment has been encoded for
transport as long as the patch hasn't come out damaged once decoded.
I'd expect any sane e-mail client to support a similar command if it were
to be used for software development the way we do it, though I realise
that regrettably some may not be as capable.
