Thanks for your feedback. I agree, which is why i decided to put it out there because I use the library in a chrome extension and if something breaks, I would be trying to get the extension fixed - patching gmail.js. Still better than finding random solutions from here and there or duplicating efforts. :-) I'd be interested in seeing what you guys are working so, so I'll ping you soon

Yeah, I'm certainly not meaning to belittle your efforts. I wrote something similar (based on jamesjyu's gmailr stuff) for my thesis last year. It's the best way to do it for relatively simple one-off projects.

The first big challenge is definitely just having a shared toolkit, but it's next to impossible to provide backwards-compatible APIs when the Gmail UI changes.

Oh... and IMAP. :-/
