Mostly because I don't want to hide all the workarounds that have been
required for clients. Microsoft may not ever fix Outlook, but other
client implementors might see what bugs others have had, and make sure
they won't have at least the same bugs.
Maybe outlook-idle workaround could be enabled by default. Hmm. I guess
I'll do that.
