+Restricting my reply to one tiny bit of your mail:\r
+\r
+You wrote:\r
+> non-recursive is the only thing that makes sense for Maildir++ folders\r
+\r
+Either I'm not understanding Maildir++ folders, or I don't agree with\r
+you.\r
+\r
+I might have an email archive that looks like this:\r
+\r
+  Maildir\r
+    .work\r
+      .project1\r
+      .project2\r
+      .etc...\r
+    .family\r
+      .dad\r
+      .mom\r
+      .brother\r
+      .etc...\r
+\r
+With the above setup, what would be unreasonable about wanting to search\r
+for all work-related messages (across all projects, say) with a string\r
+like "folder:work" ?\r
+\r
+Now, a person might definitely want to search for messages in the\r
+".work" folder directly, (not including the sub-folders), so we should\r
+provide support for users to get at that behavior as well, (such as a\r
+proposed "folder:work$" or so).\r
+\r
+To me, both cases are perfectly legitimate, and I don't understand an\r
+argument that claims that only one makes sense. (Or again, I may be\r
+misunderstanding something.)\r
