I'm not familiar with the internals of OfflineIMAP, but I'm under the
impression that imaplib2 is a third-party library bundled with
OfflineIMAP. If so, it's probably better not to change that file, so
that it doesn't diverge from the upstream sources. (Don't take my word
for it. Someone who actually knows the code should comment on it, but I
thought I should raise the issue.)

Thanks for working on this, Vlad! It will be a very useful improvement.
