I guess that's why it is a FIXME. :) So, point 1 is planned, but I have 
no idea when Timo is going to make a common interface for this.

About point 2, if you mean full integration of Sieve in the main Dovecot 
tree, I don't think so. I guess it will always be a separately 
maintained plugin.

BTW, why do you bring this up? Did you encounter problems?
