Yeah, good idea.

My patch queue (hg mq) is here:

http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.2-patches/

The toplevel submission.patch also updates the Dovecot TODO file, so you 
can look there for what remains to be done. The auto-save-to-sent 
feature is not mentioned there  yet.

ManageSieve uses this textual response-code style as well. :)

Some SMTP replies already have a somewhat structured text part, e.g. a 
domain name as the first word, or an optional mailbox specification 
enclosed in '<' and '>'. So, I don't think it would be completely 
strange to put it there.
