not for the common parts, which is where such cooperation will be handy. which 
common parts? you ask. well, i'm primarily thinking of crpyto stuff (both PGP 
and aegypten stuff), mbox/maildir code, composer window, etc... while a lot 
will probably be changing, i still see several places where the code will 
remain similar or even the same.

but we will see, in time, i suppose..

probably not for the intent of making porting bug fixes hard, but for the 
intent of making improvements that those working in the branch see as needed. 
in other words, it would be a side effect rather than an intended primary 
effect.
