I've thought about something similiar before, but I've mostly just
thought about performance and complexity issues with it. Creating a
single view from many mailboxes could be slow without some special
indexing.

Good ideas anyway, I'll think about them more once I get around to
implementing the thing (unless someone else wants to? :), sometimes
after v1.0.

Simple open/close/append triggers would be easier to implement, those
could be done with a plugin.
