Add 2 new plugins 1 for attachments changes, and the other for the joomla smart search integration with attachments. Add 2 methods on attachments helper and add code on save() saveNew(), delete() and publish().

Attachments already has too many plugins, so I'm reluctant to include this one. Please explain what it does and why we want it!

Thanks

Attachments does have already a search plug-in, but isn't a smart-search, as must joomla components do support smart-search, like content, categories, contacts, newsfeeds and tags. Having a joomla site and forcing to use the old search just because attachments does have a smart-search plug-in, I think its wrong. My guess is that most new joomla installations go for the smart-search instead of the old search, it's faster and more user friend, as it shows suggestion. Plugins can be torn on or off it's user choice, and in this case they don't affect this component, they are for adding data to finder core component.
