Ah. But the thing is, if you go to a file browser (like nautilus),
select a file, and press Ctrl-C, then go to a compose window and press
Ctrl-V, what behavior would you expect?
I would expect the file to be attached. I would not expect a path to
the file to be pasted.

The bug in chromium is, that it identifies a copied URL as if it was a
file copied from a file manager.
