This is not about what KMail shall or shall not offer, but about what other 
clients do. There is plenty of software which does *not* move to thrash by 
default, or is configurable not to do so. When a user runs KMail in 
parallel to their other client, Akonadi might eat their data.

The problem is not in how KMail conducts deletion initiated by its own 
user. The problem is how it interoperates with other concurrent IMAP 
sessions.

Cheers,
Jan
