I thought the idea was to be able to rule out problems caused by thread
madness when debugging other stuff. I think that's still a good idea,
even if we can't rule out thread madness in imaplib2, especially since
we still don't have a test suite :)
I'm trying to get a handle on what's going on. On my machine with -1,
Ctrl-C definitely does *something*, but it looks like offlineimap
continues to talk to IMAP servers and so on. imaplib2 does come with a
prominent notice saying that you need to call logout() when you're done
with an instance, but the code looks like it ought to be doing that.
I'm still looking, in other words, but I'm a bit busy the next few weeks
so may not find anything.
