The patch implements them.

There's a lot of conversation here.  I don't think it's a benefit to
carry it right now.  I will be reposting the patch on mutt-dev as soon
as I know it's stable again.  Only about half applied cleanly since
1.7.0.

I don't mean to be a jerk, but I'm not having a design discussion right
now with neomutt.  I'm letting you guys know about some work that was
already done years ago, which mutt is planning to merge, or at least
consider merging again.  Once that's done it can be productive to
talk here or there about changes to the new code, but I don't want to
redesign it in neomutt and then rewrite it for mutt, or worse have
someone here rewrite it for neomutt and then need to backport the
deltas.

I am not cutting you out - everyone is welcome to participate - but
the development happened for mutt and it's not useful to invert the
flow right now.
