It is what is happening in GNOME Online Accounts in general. Pocket is
disabled in Fedora 29, and there's a good chance that the mail
configuration bits will be disabled in Fedora 30.

I don't know whether those changes will also be done upstream, but the
result will be the same, it won't be possible for applications shipped
through Flatpak to know that certain configuration options will be
available in GNOME Online Accounts.
