If I understand the semantics of the new keyword

yes, though i thought again, and i think i'll make a separate option
ExpungeGone instead - i think that will be easier to do and document.
semantics are the same.
On the other hand, a filter mechanism for flags to avoid syncing
certain
flags seems to be another flexible, general purpose solution (e.g.,
something like what I was proposing earlier: `SkipFlags Deleted`).
i'm not convinced. if the only real use case is working around a
shortcoming that can be fixed differently, then it isn't a particularly
useful feature. it's not like anyone ever asked for it.
Separately, is it possible to re-sync messages from far -> near (under new
UIDs on the near side) for messages that have been deleted and expunged on
the near side, say as part of a ReNew operation? This is regarding the last
step of my workflow, since damages have already been done and it would be
nice not to have to re-sync the whole mailbox (~10^5 messages...)
yes, i've already put it on the todo list.
