Not MIDs, but lei has --lock= for various mbox locking methods.
cindex will also support combinations of
--join=aggressive,reset,dt:...,window:$INTEGER

I like to support commas when there's unambiguous keywords/commands
that can be easily parsed.  `dt:$approxidate' in --join could have
date-times with commas in them, but I don't think anybody would
use those characters in a command.
