I've implemented a bi-directional notmuch/gmail sync. It does a full sync fine, but doesn't do partial syncs at all, and it's too slow to run a full sync over and over again. I've started working on it again recently, trying to speed up the full sync process by adding multiprocessing. The source is at http://alexbl.net/~alexbl/imapsync.py (older version but the logic itself hasn't changed), if you're interested in working on it.
