Is multi-media electronic mail around the corner?

If I come across an interesting picture, piece of music, or
other non-text document in the Web, I'd like to be able to
attach that to an e-mail message and send it to a colleague.

Or, how about only embedding the identifier for the document
into the e-mail message, leaving it upto the mail-reading
client software at the recipient's host to parse the
identifier, track down the document on the Internet, and
present it to the user in a way that is reasonable for his
desktop environment?
