I think what you say makes sense. You should:
- Submit a bug report for this, if possible including a proposal for a 
fix.
- Use the kde-pim mailing list instead of the kmail-devel mailing list 
since since quite some time the former is used for discussing the 
development of KMail. (kmail-devel, nowadays, only serves as recipient 
for old bug reports.)
