Interesting.  IMO nowadays MUAs should work by systematically
maintaining a full local copy of your mailboxes/folders.

[ And ideally, the IMAP protocol would be replaced by something like the
  Git protocol for that, so something like `git pull`, and `git push` would
  be used to fetch new mail and update flags, delete messages on the
  remote server, ...  ]
