I wonder if an alternative approach might be worth considering. For
example, instead of nagging with an "Are you sure?" prompt, perhaps
keep a list of "recent" mailbox renames, and make that a pane that
can be viewed. That would allow users to undo or re-rename a
mailbox.
If going that way, it would be easier to simply support regular undo
for mailbox renaming.
That would work, as long as the person realized it fairly soon. A
downside is that the person might not realize until too late. The nice
thing is that it is more intuitive than a pane of recent renames.
RENAME is used for simple rename cases, but the fallback is
create+append equivalent to moving between accounts.
What makes a rename simple vs not simple? (I've manually renamed
mailboxes to change their position in the hierarchy, e.g., A1 RENAME
"FOO" "BAR/FOO").
Improving this is not straightforward, but when/if I do I've noted to
also add undo/redo.
Sounds good.
