In pretty much any browser you can type the first letter of a folder and it'll take you to the part of the select list where that folder is. I don't see a lot of merit in putting work into that widget when the future IMP UI is almost certainly a DIMP-like folder list, even in the base HTML version. At least firefox does not do that. It gets confused when you have folders and subfolders.

It would be very nice if the folders list on the top right of IMP could be searched with auto-completion. In some cases, users have a lot of e-mail folders and subfolders (for example, one folder per client) and it´s kind of hard to scroll the list through so many names. Having the ability to type in the name and getting the completed possibilities would be really great.
