I think it's horrible.
Also there is a problem with small screens (800x600 and even 1024x768),
for viewing all the tree with columns (it's too wide).
I prefer the actual look for the folders, but I need to display the
number of messages in the draft count, so I don't forget I have mails
pending. I think treat the drafts folder like the outbox one is not a
problem, there isn't any confusion (because I don't see too logical to
have a draft message unread).
I would like to have a solution, that's why I have written the patch.
