Now, Whose's bright idea (said with glee!) is it that decided to change
the Shortcut key for Evolution's Insert->Attachment from Ctrl-Alt-A to
Ctrl-M?

mine. well, i proposed control+h, but anyway. :-)

Why was this changed, btw?

because the shortcuts were a huge mess with many conflicts in 2.4, see:
http://www.go-evolution.org/index.php?title=Shortcut_Keys_Review&oldid=1673

(I also noticed that there's no more usage of the "alt" key in any of
the shortcut keys)

correct. "Do not use Alt-key combinations for shortcut keys, as these
may conflict with window manager or menu access keys." as stated by
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/input-keyboard.html

hopes this clarifies it.

cheers,
andre
