Can you say a little more about how such a future QMF would create
identities and the corresponding account? Would it be private to the
mail app or shared between apps? What names would be used for the
account and the Identity caption (the only string besides
username/secret that I see in an Identity)?

I'm trying to figure out if a second app can find and use those
credentials if the user has already created a mail account for, say,
Google (everyone's favorite...), and vice versa.
