The main reason things changed is sypport for shared mailboxes.  I can't   elaborate now because I'm driving.

Why is 2.3 different?  I'm fairly sure that these issues:

	4) xfer onto a replicating backend causes sync_client to exit
	8) renaming users causes sync_client to exit

would be solved with the algorithm you're using (or the one Bron  
outlined).
