Indeed; see my last paragraph.
I know little about vBulletin, but MyBB works in a similar way - there's clearly a link between posts and attachments in the database which causes this behaviour. Whether than can be altered is not known, but it's hardly worth investigating - it's just a thumbnail after all. I do like the possibility of saving attachment space, but doubt I'd be able to persuade users to think about doing this in practice.
