For example for the IMAP provider in camel-lite, at line 2896 of
camel-imap-folder.c the IMAP cache instance is ordered to store the
message in the cache. 

Once in cache, the retrieval status can be set to "Retrieved" or
"Cached".

Later that flag can also have a field for "Partially" or "Completely"

imap_update_summary and imap_rescan combined need
camel_operation_progress calls for this. They should perhaps also share
one CamelOperation instance rather than creating two for each (if
possible).

I guess this is just going to be some Camel API wrapping?

camel-folder-summary.c enhancements. There's an initial patch available
(that will crash).

No idea yet, but the async connecting of above will help with this in
some ways

Doing the usual _async thingy for this one (anyway can by now do this)

Is it needed?

Recursive message/alternative in message/rfc822 mime parts are not
working atm caused by some of the ugly pieces of the current
implementation

- C++ bindings too
