Rearrange Attachments/Bulk Attachments

So this morning I was sending a student some SAT vocab lists. In my email, I wanted to say that "First, is XYZ list and next is XYZ2 list..." and just typed that out because I always attach after writing. This is because of habit but also because you type your emails and then consider which materials need to be sent out. Do you attach before or after?

Well, some times it's convenient to be able to just hit an up arrow or a down arrow to make the order of your attachments correspond with how you describe them in the email.

Some files are easier to find than others, so when I need to send a file, I want to be able to just grab what I want to send when I see it. I come across some files before others and it can be annoying to have to go to really different places to pick files out. So why not be able to pick multiple items and upload them simultaneously? I know there's programs that let you do this but not for email attachments.

If GMail had this, it'd be great. Is there some way out there already? A clever workaround to make this happen?
