I am in favour of keeping both syntaxes, because Ken showed usability of glabal
variable use.

Ooh, I kind of like this! So the flags specified with :flags would be
the only ones set for that message (as opposed to the union of :flags
and the globals), correct? What if we have some global flags set, but
want to fileinto/keep WITHOUT any flags? Would we do this with
something like:
keep :flags []; or
keep :flags ""; or
keep :flags "None";
We could opt for an IMAP like syntax here:
keep :flags+ [...] - stored flags are global flags with additional flags
keep :flags- [...] - stored flags are global flags with some removed
keep :flags [...] - stored flags are only those listed - global flags are
ignored
Sometimes you want to use only global flags, so I would rather the following:
keep :globalflags+ [...] - stored flags are global flags with additional flags
keep :globalflags- [...] - stored flags are global flags with some removed
keep :globalflags - use only global flags
keep :flags [...] - stored flags are only those listed - global flags are
ignored
