I hadn't looked at the UpdateManager before... that's pretty cool.

The problem is that the text in label-list-mode is created by LabelListMode#regen_text. It would be awkward to fiddle with @text outside of there. Since regen_text gets its numbers from Index.num_results_for, the other buffer has to sync to the index before the label list will know about it. So it seems to be just as effective to add 'def focus; reload; end' to LabelListMode.

Handling the unread counts in LabelListMode seems dirty, anyway. You'd have to watch more than just the :read event, right? If a thread is archived from the inbox, for instance, the unread count for 'Inbox' should go down.

So I haven't done any of that... but I found a related problem: the inbox doesn't update if you unarchive a thread elsewhere. I made a na?ve patch that works in some cases.
