I'm working on an IMAP backend for file storage, which should be able
to store any text data.  I want to use it for synchronization among
other things.  It's far from done though - if anyone wants to pick it
up, I'll send it over.  I got the underlying stuff done, file-exists-p
working, and was about to do read/write when other work came up.
