I understand that message counts are not *that important* however it is
an annoyance to me. So, do you believe that having some kind of support
for this would make sense for specific backends like nnml? (which
support article moving)

One work around I have tried so far is Compacting the group, however,
currently I'm a little bit afraid of using it since
a) it can be slow on large groups
b) it can have bad effects especially if something goes wrong
c) it does not work on nnimap :)
