Background operations

[Joan Moreau]

Hello, 

Moving a large number of email from one folder to another does create
timeout on roundcube, due to either a very very large number of emails
or indexing process that increases the processing time. 

Would it make sense to have a background thread, to process orders
asynchronously, instead of executing it on the spot ? 

For instance, orders (like moving or indexing or others) would be stored
in a backlog instead of executing them in place, and then a background
operation would process it ? 

Makes any sense ? 

Thank you
