So the virtual folders are easily rebuilt by just re-applying the filters into all the messages.
Not neccessarily if you add one level of indirection, simply numbering the mailboxes by index numbers internally and providing a number/name mapping somewhere. This way, a mailbox can be renamed easily simply by updating the map, and might by deleted by removing the map entry. Stale index number may be left in the messages and might cleaned up the next time a message's folder list is updated or messages are expunged.
