No - as I said, we're not dealing with traditional email; there is a 
confirmation step between pressing "delete" and the object actually being 
deleted, whereas with mail pressing delete puts the object in the trash 
folder. At least, that's the convention I've seen used in the clients that 
I've used - the trash folder holds deleted emails.

Anyway, I guess it can happen that way, but then our whole /folder-type 
annotation is useless as we'll have calender entries, etc, in a so-called 
"mail" folder. And if we're going to be parsing every object to see what 
format it is, then /folder-type becomes pretty redundant.
