Working with the Mail.app and its children items presented me with the following difficulties.

- It makes QS very unresponsive. Not just the initial listing when I right-arrow (which beachballed and took about a minute), but also after I drilled down into a mailbox, it would make QS activation / deactivation lag by more than 20 seconds.

Oh, yeah. It’s passable on an SSD, but I imagine it’s unusable on anything else. It has to pull in subject, etc. from every single message.

- So it looks like working with the spotlight catalog wouldn't be very useful unless it could access the QuickLook data

Actually, I forgot, but you can Quick Look the messages in Quicksilver. You can set the “Spacebar behavior” preference to Quick Look, or just use ⌘Y.

Would it be feasible to influence the Spotlight plugin to present a different view of the item?

It’s just using Quicksilver’s default code for dealing with files. I have plans to allow plug-ins to say “I can do a better job with this file type”, but nothing that will be available any time soon.
