I agree that this should go into some mainline branch soon. But I would
propose to merge the APPENDUID branch and release that one as a proper
release first. It fixes the mangling of emails in many cases and the
handing of the wrong date to the mail server in nearly all cases.

If we release that and integrate the IDLE branch than, it will be easier
to find out which branch is responsible for breaking things and it would
be easier to revert the IDLE branch if it were responsible for breaking
things.

I am pro-merging it, but I am not sure it can be added as an optional
experimental feature, as IMAPLIB2 interfaces with our regular code is
quite some places as the patches show.
