Then maybe we need not only a "feature freeze" but also a "architectural
cleanup freeze".

In KDE 3.0.0 KMail had a bug that caused in some cases IMAP folders to be
eaten because of a late architectural cleanup.
In KDE 2.2.0 and KDE 2.2.1 we a bug that caused KMail always crashing when any
folder contained a message with a certain content because of a late
architectural cleanup. Not only when selecting the message but also when it's
just in the folder.

I don't really like to have such things again.
Not all bugs become visible immediately.

BTW: I already found that first newly introduced bug in these recent changes.
