&gt; Right, Apple decided it wasn&#x27;t important so that means it isn&#x27;t important?<p>I was referring to all Mail Apps, I don&#x27;t even use Apple Mail, I use Gmail.
Yes Apple decides what&#x27;s important in their App, Google decides what&#x27;s important in theirs, Everyone else decides...<p>&gt; Being on an e-mail thread where someone says &quot;hey, can you e-mail over that spreadsheet?&quot; is hardly rare.<p>You can still send spreadsheet attachments, open said Spread sheet, hit share attachment, Done. Go back to playing games.<p>&gt; iPad has not been a huge success as a productivity tool.<p>So catering for a smaller class of enterprise and power users should be the holy metric Apple should be catering for? 
Apple has OSX for power users, iOS for everyone else. That strategy seems to be working quite well for them.
