Trash dealt with inconsistently.

Nope. In my book, Undelete shouldn't be a no-op, period. If I delete a message in a folder called foo, it should be moved to Trash (itself). Even if foo happens to be a subfolder of Trash. And if I then undelete it, it should be moved into the subfolder. That's not inconsistent with the documentation, and I'd put money on it, what users would say is most appropriate / expected behavior.

When using the search feature, messages in subfolders of Trash are not considered to be in Trash:
When a standard search (which the documentation indicates excludes the folders Trash and Archive) is performed, emails in subfolders of Trash ARE searched and listed if they match the search criteria.
