That would be good.

I just had a look at PEAR::Error for the first time; it doesn't seem
to have any mechanism for signalling success either, so we'd need
something else to show that the operation worked.

Btw, some of the operations take folders arrays (delete,sub,unsub)
and others do not.  It makes returning objects a bit more complicated;
how about shifting them all to single folder operations instead?

The only speed hit I can see is for the delete() one, which 
caches a imap_listsubscribed().  Given that's it isn't often used,
that's pretty minor.

PS: anyone mind if I tabs->space it?  They are driving me mad! :)
