I'm not fond of it, mainly because it's so IMAP-specific, and the idea

It seems to me that since we agree that fileinto is useful to have in
the base Sieve spec (despite being unable to be executed by the server
in a POP environment), that having setflag would also be useful. On
the other hand, I can think of some IMAP servers where Sieve can be
implemented, including fileinfo, but where setflag couldn't be done, at
least without changing the server's plug-in API.
In such a case you are free to ignore "setflags" (as a wrote in the document).
Other important issue. As Tim Showalter noticed setflags should be bind to
fileinto, because multiple fileinto are possible for the same message. Any
ideas? (Tim Showalter proposed to add additional parameter to fileinto, so I
mean "any other ideas" here)
