nnmaildir already does that. The problem is that Gnus flags are a
superset of what Maildir variants can handle.

The nnmaildir slowness comes from its desire to be safe for access from
multiple machines to a shared spool. If it kept a message database it
would be much faster. The patches I mentioned were discussed on
emacs-devel move some of the message count tracking to a single file,
but it really needs to be a single file for flags and counts.
I asked Paul Jarc for comments on my proposal. See
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/125311/focus=126444 for
details. I think nnmaildir can be ridiculously fast for single-client
access if we allow it.
