Well, it's about as "standard" as the Maildir standard (i.e. it's 
defined by a web page, and a couple people support it). The real juice 
of the Maildir++ standard isn't the subfolders either, but is the 
better way of generating filenames during delivery. (Maildir assumes 
that PIDs are unique within a single second, and Maildir++ does not).

I'm speaking out of ignorance here, but why would you need a patch for 
this? (Unless maybe it's making mutt use the new filename semantics?) 
I used to do the mutt+Courier thing, and it was pretty easy, I just 
had to get into the habit of hitting "=." in front of my folder names 
rather than just "=".
