No, for marking messages, no special backend is required.  After all,
you can hit M-u in nnimap groups, right?

I'm not sure that I remember correctly.  I think nntodo does something
special for nntodo-request-accept-article.  (It queries for the extra
headers.)

It would be desirable to rewrite all them thingies so that they can
extend any other backend.  For example, WIBNI nndraft could store your
drafts on the IMAP server?  Then you could access them from any host.

Thoughts?
