I was sort of planning on keeping all the message metadata in the Lucene DB. MH uses a filesystem structure too.

This doesn't sound too far from what I intended, actually. I'd like to keep the Lucene index in memory, and don't particularly want the overhead of process swaps, so I'd like to be able to use them together in a single address space. It sounds like you've worked out most of the issues with IMAP4, so I'll take a closer look.
