To make org-mode look for attachments in the current sub-tree when using org-insert-link would simplify the process of "linking" to attached files (useful at least when exporting). Persistent links, in in this regard, seems like a nice idea!

You can already use (setq org-attach-store-link-p t) to create a link
while attaching a file.
Since links are deleted as soon as they are inserted, this will be
usable only once. We can imagine *persistent links* -- and links to
attached files could be a good example of persistent links.
What do you think?
