If you use X-labels heavily and are comfortable building mutt from source I encourage you to take a look at https://bitbucket.org/dgc/mutt-dgc/qseries and apply at least up to the complete-pattern-y patch.
I wouldn't mind trying this out, but I'm a little unclear how to apply the patches. I normally build mutt from the hg sources...
Furthermore, what would really add to mutt in my mind is some 'smart folder' capability. Anyone who uses a Mac and is on OS X 10.7 should take a look at the new Mail.app. The smart folders (saved searches) are pretty nice in my opinion and are very fast. Coupled with a labels scheme such as the one you wrote about, you have something that competes with gmail/notmuch/sup without fooling around with IMAP standards or running an email client from within emacs.
