One problem is that maildir doesn't support tags, so we would have to
switch to a format that does or somehow store them in the maildir, in
which case we would also have to adapt offlineimap or a similar tool to
sync tags as well.

Support for tags is mentioned in the RFC for IMAP, but it's optional. As
far as I know, must servers today support them though.
