That sounds good to me.  It makes sense to me to track both bugs and
future enhancements in a similar kind of way.

(BTW, anyone looking for a data mining job?  There's a goldmine of
useful discussion on future enhancements (which may also be
simplifications, of course) in the mailing list archive.)

Now you're playing dirty!

Handling rfc822.el will require a basic buffer implementation:
forward-char, insert, buffer-substring etc. etc.  But surely that's a
more interesting task for someone than translating rfc822.el as a
whole to rfc822.scm.

(To make it really interesting/useful, do this by preprocessing the
relevant source files from the Emacs distribution.  (Damn, I'm quite
tempted myself now.))
