While I'm all for such additions I doubt you'll see anything like that
soon. Maybe with 3.0?

This is something you should consider when you choose a provider. I
work for such a provider (which will be nameless) and I consider doing
things like this as part of our 'service'. Deleting/changing a message
in the mbox and running 'arch' to rebuild the archive only takes a few
moments of my time.
