I seem to find > myself tweaking attachment details more often than not. > As far as I noticed, (a) If you add attachment to an existing bug, you are prompted to select a mime-type for it and there is a checkbox to say that "this is a patch" (b) If you are creating a new bug and choose to add an attachment to it, you cannot choose its mime-type. There is no such field in that dialog. So in case of (b) you can only rely on auto-detection. This auto-detection is faulty at times, though for me in many times it worked successfully when I named my file as *.patch.
