It is an odd feature...

and you can do that with File->Attach Message(s).

I got out of the habit of using the `Forward the current message' 
button, because of the way it worked. I guess it's conventional for a 
MUA to have one...I'd vote for having one message with all the selected 
messages as attachments.

I note that Message->Forward inline... has the same behavior: one new 
message per forwarded message.  I note also that the `Automatically 
quote original when replying' checkbox on the Preferences->Mail 
Options->Outgoing page has broken the `Forward inline' function: if you 
deselect autoquote, you don't get the text included when forwarding 
inline.  Presumably, `Forward inline' should override autoquote--I'll 
look at the code.
