This is a great feature to have when we need to send large attachments more than 1GB to others. It is not showing up yet in my Gmail but Google said this will be rolled out to all the users soon in the next few days.
Have you ever tried to attach a file to an email only to find out it's too large to send? Now with Drive, you can insert files up to 10GB -- 400 times larger than what you can send as a traditional attachment. Also, because you’re sending a file stored in the cloud, all your recipients will have access to the same, most-up-to-date version. Like a smart assistant, Gmail will also double-check that your recipients all have access to any files you’re sending. This works like Gmail’s forgotten attachment detector: whenever you send a file from Drive that isn’t shared with everyone, you’ll be prompted with the option to change the file’s sharing settings without leaving your email. It’ll even work with Drive links pasted directly into emails.
I also saw another nice feature, "auto-save" feature, whatever we type in the Compose window is stored as a draft message, so we don't have to worry about long messages getting lost by accidental window closing nor we have to click the "save" option anymore. It is just like the auto-save feature in Google Drive there is no save button.
