This is correct.  A move operation in IMAP (at least until VERY  
recently) is actually a COPY-STORE (Deleted flag)-EXPUNGE operation.

Yes, this is correct.  To reduce latency, a message is immediately  
marked as deleted on the browser before the request is ever sent to  
the server.

Probably need a method to reset the flag on error to ensure the  
browser state is the same as the server state.
