Forgotten Attachment detector : Gmail new feature

Hi,
Many of us have experienced the embarrassment of having sent a message without attaching the file we said we were going to attach. So Google Labs come up with a new solution of "Forgotten Attachment detector". What this feature do is , it find the attach word in the message as it find it,then it checks for the attachment if it is not there then a pop-up open which ask you to ensure that you want to send this message without attachment.
To turn on this feature,just go to the settings of gmail account there find the Tab with name "Labs" click on it and there will be so many other feature,go to the Forgotten Attachment detector option and just Enable it ,and save the settings.Now you can verify this,by sending a mail with "attach" string in your message.
It is good but there some more functionality required as this pattern matching should also be applicable for the Subject field, and they should also use the synonyms of attach string which can be used.
