As I understand, gmail itself is not arranged in folders but emulates it. 
Perhaps because of the folders like requirement of imap. I am not really sure 
of the details here.

Filtering will be required in a tags based system such as gmal too. Actually, 
tags don't really have much to do with the current subject. My bad. I never 
should mentioned it here! :)

But OT, I can see the benefits of a tagging based system where the folder 
hierarchy is purely a visualization and the same mail can appear in multiple 
folders and yet be just one true copy on the file system. In fact I prefer this 
approach in many areas like my music collection. But this all getting off topic 
so ill stop here! :)
