You are of course right about this, and using a vendor registered tag is
"The Right Solution(TM)". But I'm still not too happy about the kolab
clients depending on a non-RFC feature that no imap server supports out
of the box without patching.
So the questions boil down to: Can we live with depending on a patched
cyrus imapd? Can we live with the danger or other clients fscking up
the /comment on Kolab folders?
