Issue here is about wasted bandwidth, something local filtering cannot handle 
AFAICT. Bugs usually have links to attachments that can be clicked on when 
seeing them by list mail recipient is wished. Why they need to go out to all 
subscribers and populate mailing list archives I don't grok. I'd think at 
least by option subscribers could choose not having bug attachments attached 
to each list mail.
