Just what I feared - the email opening is handled by GDS itself - and
as Kevin says, probably using Thunderbird api.
So, the next step is for someone to write a small program to take some
kind of message identifier and open in it thunderbird. (are those id
things in the URL file offsets for that email ?)

Well mairix does that. But even that is not straightforward:
1) extract the text for that email from the "huge" mbox file => might
have to store file offsets for the begin and end in the index
2) append that text to the specified mbox folder "beagle results" -
deal with mbox locking
3) not necessary, but then ask thunderbird to open "beagle results" folder.
