Exactly correct.  My goal is to provide a couple of choices for the
pending queue format; initially probably the current simple format, a
Maildir-compatible format, and possibly a sender-based format.  Also
an API so users can write/contribute their own pending queue modules.

Sure.  I'm actually trying to make this _easier_ by leveraging more
powerful tools than tmda-pending to manipulate the queue.  

Thinking about this some more, I think I'll still need to provide a
'release' mechanism for users whose DELIVERY values are more complex
than a simple mailbox delivery.  Think .qmail or pipe instruction for
example.  I don't mind this.  I just want to get out of the business
of displaying, sorting, viewing, and deleting messages in the pending
queue.  MUAs are a million times better at these tasks.
