Nope.  First thing I tried.  Undefined imap-ssl-program.

Ok, that's definitely more visually pleasing.

(Is there any other reasons that it's better...?)

Nothing.  Was that present in 2004 on 20.4?  That's when the variable
appeared in my setup, according to "svn blame".  I looked for something
like that back then, but didn't find it.

I'm a slow adopter of new emacsen.  I stayed with emacs 18 for as long
as it was viable and probably a bit beyond that.  I stayed with 19.34
for _ages_. :-)
