[Dovecot] IMAP Get Savedate plugin

I'm trying to put it in a plugin, but when I call imap_fetch_handlers_register(), it works
but all other fetch handlers get removed, my init is
void savedate_plugin_init(void)
{
     const struct imap_fetch_handler savedate_handler[1] = {
         { "X-SAVEDATE", fetch_x_savedate_init }
     };
     imap_fetch_handlers_register(savedate_handler,1);
}

is there something wrong that I'm doing?

I guess this could be useful for other purposes too. Actually today I
just needed this for testing that my dbox changes work. So committed it
to v1.2+: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/aedec88c6e31

I think you could have also made it a plugin. In the plugin's init()
function just call imap_fetch_handlers_register() to register your new
handler(s).
