The file isn't attached, and there's no feedback. Is there a reason we would want to disallow attaching empty files? I know the use case for it is questionable, but I don't see a real reason to disallow it either.

And we have previously discussed the '0 bytes attachment' issue previously (although I couldn't find the discussion with a quick search). IIRC the reason we don't allow 0 byte attachments is either 1.) it has something to do with the limitation of the PHP upload core code and/or 2.) users uploading a file that may be in use on the browser-side (i.e. a windows temp file) get instant notification that the file they thought they have attached wasn't attached and/or 3.) we couldn't think of a situation (outside of testing) why a 0-byte file was valid.
