The basic problem is in the context of syncing multiple accounts where
one is fast and the others are slower (due to the number of folders).
When the fast account completes, the other accounts are partially written
through the list and if the file is read during this time, the list can
be useless. However, in the general case, the file is probably left
around from a previous run of offlineimap and is more correct, so add an
option to leave it alone until all syncing is done.
Incremental is still the default since this running offlineimap using
its own timer setup is likely the most common setup. Turning it off
works best with one-shot mode triggered by cron or systemd timers.

Make external API of class/module to be smaller, explicitely mark
all internal functions. Also annotate methods that are implemented
as the part of the parent class interface.

It is called localfolders and holds expanded name for the same
variable for the local repository of the account that is being
processed.

mutt-sidebar and, probably, other MUA show mailboxes in the order
they are listed in the file written by mbnames. Therefore, to allow
customization of the order with which mailboxes are listed, introduce
the new 'sort_keyfunc' directive in the [mbnames] section.
'sort_keyfunc' must be a function that will be called once for each
mailbox. It must accept the only argument -- a dict with 2 items,
'accountname' and 'foldername', and should return an object that
will be used as the sorting key for each mailbox.
Default key function returns (d['accountname'], d['foldername']),
thus sorting by account name and then by the folder name.

They are redundant in all pruned cases and sometimes even create some
problems, e.g., when one tries to jump through paragraphs in vi.
