I think it's a bad idea. Besides the UID problems causing all kinds of trouble with clients (some clients ignore UIDVALIDITY completely (Apple Mail, at least used to) and the result is that opening a message from list opens a completely different mail) control files also contain dovecot-keywords which provides the maildir filename letter <-> keyword mapping.
