Since we always bump the UIDVALIDITY of folders on rename, create or delete (keeping a tombstone record), we only need to keep track of two numbers - one for any changes to the folder listing, and a second for any changes to any mailbox.  This allows us to optimise our web interface significantly (and provide the same advantages to any future clients that talk to our JSON API directly).

Won't the UIDVALIDITY change on RENAME invalidate the local cache even for the client that issued the RENAME command?
