We do display an error - my changes to add the alerts log broke alert
display on the compose page, which has been fixed.
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.
