That works for me.

(I have an additional feature request for this case: look in the group
parameters of the current group for a group parameter giving the name
for an archive group and search that as well.  My use case is that I
keep my high traffic nnimap groups slim by expiring read mail to archive
groups, and manually moving ticked messages to the same archive groups).

Um... I don't really have any strong views on this one, except...
