Changing the meaning of IMAP \FLAGGED flag was not a good idea. We have
50000 users that are used to the existing semantics. Almost all MUAs are
rendering the flag as Important, and it shouldn't be changed too lightly.

Furthermore, because someone has set the flag manually, the MUA shouldn't
clear it. It seems like a bug to me.
