Maybe a better way would be to use namespaces? Have an Outlook specific namespace (since it and OE are apparently the buggiest clients in this regard)... then you'd just need to:
Have a way to define which folder to use in the namespace, and
make sure all of your Outlook clients use the proper namespace.
I *certainly* don't want to be forced to use 'sent-mail' in my Tbird...
May be Outlook is buggy, but your mentioned Thunderbird has it's own issue:
When I want to use german names for a user I setup his mail account with a folder named "Papierkorb" as trash folder (german translation). This can be used with many email clients without problems. But a german Thunderbird wants to create a new folder "Trash" and displays it as "Papierkorb". So what is the result? In Thunderbird I have two folders named as "Papierkorb" where I see in other clients a folder "Trash" and a folder "Papierkorb". (The same applies to sent, draft and templates folders.)
