I am taking you seriously: IMHO The above says that you are willing
to contribute something valuable by taking into account that there _is_
the official KMail HEAD branch and that working on the branch would
lead to difficulties at merge-time if the official HEAD were ignored
during your branch planing and implementation.

To me your statement does look like you _do_ care about whether your
changes will make merging difficult or not.

So please think about my proposal:

   Any technical issues might increase the gap between the make-it-cool
   branch and KMail's official HEAD branch should be discussed not via
   private mails but _in_public_ by posting your questions/suggestions
   to this mailing list so the KMail core developers and the KMail
   maintainer can read about it and comment in case they whish to do so.

I hope asking for this is not considered unpolite?

Private mails are OK as long as they do not cover topics that are of
common interest of the KMail developers...
