Trying to script workarounds using macros and having problems with a
peculiar (to my mind) behaviour.

In the pager and index, <change-folder> suggests a path, but if I
start typing i-m-a-p-:-/-/ it will show imap://

However, in the browser, <change-folder> appends what I type to the
current path, so for example it will first show:-

Chdir to: imap://name@localhost/

and after calling my macro which simply runs
"<change-folder>imap://name2@localhost" the result will be
Chdir to: imap://name@localhost/hange-folder>imap://name2@localhost

It seems to me to be buggy in two ways, first that <change-folder> is
spelt out in that way, and secondly that the default behaviour is
auto-appending. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?
