I'll certainly take a look.  The current state of hcache at least begs
to be broken apart.

However, given the huge amount of effort I had to put in fixing the
sidebar and compressed folder patches from NeoMutt, and the direction
you are starting to take with large fundamental changes to the code, we
may be reaching a point beyond which I will consider it.

My intention always was to review and merge old external patches, even
before your project existed.  So while I appreciate (some of) the
cleanup you did, I went through the effort because I planned to anyway.

You and your developers have the right to fork the code and have fun
tearing it apart, but I didn't spend the last four years working my way
up the Mutt development team just to spend all my time henceforth
reviewing giant patches from an external community.
