'r' means replied, not 'answered'.

Same. trashed and deleted are not the same thing.

I don't want to get into an argument over this, because I think this
already exposes a problem: you are putting into global namespace
something not everyone might want, or agree with.

Why not use 'maildirflags::replied' instead? People can always map
that to something in the global namespace.
