+What about Maildir++'s ".folder" vs an mh (or other) "folder"?\r
+\r
+And it might be deemed unimportant, but always unifying cur/new will\r
+make it impossible for someone not using Maildir to independently refer to\r
+legitimate directories named cur and new.\r
+\r
+If it were feasible to rewrite queries, I'd be tempted to consider\r
+adding a fully literal path:, and then building a "more magic" maildir:\r
+or folder: on top, via rewriting.\r
+\r
+Regardless, I suspect that in the long run it might make sense to\r
+support literal searches somehowm, in addition to any more "friendly"\r
+option (that perhaps guesses about the mailstore type, etc.).\r
+\r
+One possibility might be to change the current literal folder: proposal\r
+to present itself as path: (leaving folder: alone).  Then any rework of\r
+folder: (as the friendlier term) could be considered independently.\r
+\r
+But I don't feel very strongly about any of this.  I'll be happy with\r
+any reasonable way to specify specific "folders" in a Maildir++ tree\r
+(with or without cur/new unification, etc.).\r
+\r
