New description:

 It would be nice if IMAP operations could be stopped. There are two easy
 examples where it'd be really nice. First, when downloading a big message,
 you may change your mind and not want to see the message -- it would be
 nice to be able to control-C it (like all other mutt operations) to stop.
 Second, when the network connection goes away (say, I'm running mutt on my
 laptop, close the lid, go home for the day, and open up the laptop), it'd
 be nice to be able to tell mutt "give up now" rather than having to wait
 for `$connect_timeout`
