it makes it WORSE; each nmh command starts with a brand-new scan of a
folder, so messages added or removed between commands work out fine.
But a FUSE interface would have no idea when an nmh command is starting
or stopping, so you'd have to do a lot of caching or a new IMAP session
for each file access.

That pretty much nuts down the issue.  If you want to play IMAP in MH, you must 
become a full-on IMAP client, playing all those locking games.
