I'm more than happy with batch operations. I suspect that doing this
outside of sup proper also keeps the main program itself a little
simpler.
I did look at the sup-sync-back tool and noticed that it performs some
mbox operations on its own. Operations that I feel really belong in the
mbox source class itself. I feel sup-sync-back would become simpler if
polymorphism was put to use a bit more. So, do you have any
philosophical problems with a `delete` method being added to the
sources? (It would probably be followed by a `mark_as_read` in the
future.)
