That's correct, there's no easy interface. However, if you're willing to
use a hard interface, there's a patch that lets you attach some files,
then group them as a set of multipart/alternatives.
http://home.uchicago.edu/~dgc/sw/mutt/patch-1.5.4.dgc.groupalts.2
In the compose menu, attach the two alternatives as if they were regular
attachments. Tag the parts you want grouped, then press '&' to pull them
together. Use the + and - keys to change their order.
