This is supposed to work now: we added support for embedded attachments at the same time as we added links. While editing a note, either select "Attach File" from the Edit menu (or the note's contextual menu), or drag a file onto the note and hold down Option as you drop it. (This is a standard dragging convention on the Mac: if you hold down Option, it will try to make a copy; if you hold down Control, it will try to make a link.) Oh, and you can paste them in as well.

Unfortunately, embedded attachments are basically unusable at the moment: you can add an attachment, but you can't actually get them back out yet. (You can currently tell it's an attachment rather than a link because only linked file give you the option of opening the file when you Control-Click or Right-Click on them. Ultimately, we'll badge linked files differently so you can tell whether the file is linked or embedded at a glance.)
