I don't know if it would save any time for that to be configurable, ie be able 
to set which folders to check for filtering.  I think for most people either 
mail is all delivered to the inbox, which is why we need client-side 
filtering, or we have server-side filtering to sort it into seperate boxes, 
and don't need the client side as much.

If I understand the rational behind "apply on manual filtering", the idea is 
to be able to look at all messages prior to filtering, then manually apply 
the filters.  So yes, there is a purpose for "manual" vs. "automatic" 
filters.

Thanks for the work.  Hope you can look at making IMAP folders destinations 
for filters soon.
