Mauro Cicognini added the comment:

The removal of the dead code causes imaplib under py3k to lose the quoting 
functionality that is described in documentation (except for passwords, that do 
get always quoted as stated).

I submit that we give at least a temporary warning in the docs, and that the 
_quote() function is exposed to let the programmer do their own quoting when 
they feel it necessary.
