You mean you want to replace the branch by combining both features so
they coexist in the same branch (e.g. in the trunk)?
That sounds like a good plan. Even better if you can avoid duplicating
files, using (if rmail-mbox <somecode> <othercode>) where
necessary instead.
As long as the BABYL code is not broken before the mbox code works, and
as long as there is clear understanding that we *will* finish the mbox
support, you could even install this code on the trunk so people can
test it just by (setq rmail-mbox t).
