I don't see how "simple links" relates to what I had in mind, so I have
a feeling this is a misunderstanding.

That is what I had in mind.  Is it "fragile"?  If Google changes the
UI of the basic HTML mode, it would break.  Does Google change that
very often?

In any case, if Google breaks all advertized other ways of
transferring a Gmail account's incoming mail into a free MUA, scraping
would be MUCH better than no way at all.
