Ahem, no, that wouldn't scale well :) 

On the other hand having a specific kolab share driver is not so much
about supporting horde apps like ansel. It is mainly centered towards
turba, mnemo,nag and kronolith. 

The reason for suggesting a specific kolab driver is the fact that kolab
is based on this IMAP-centric model and IMAP is  the storage backend used
for all kolab groupware information. 

So the original Kolab driver tries to bridge between the IMAP information
and the datatree storage and constantly syncs from one to the other. And
this actually never really worked. 

So having this specific share driver helps with kolab, but it will not be
the most efficient choice for having large image galleries in an e-mail
based storage system.
