I noticed that everytime auto- patches have been brought into issue,
murder was argued as a sensible impacted part. i'm curious how many
admins out of total setups are actually using it. I myself just abuse
cyrus as a single server for a soho office, so murder it's always
ignored. I understand it's powerful and there are other setups with
massive number of servers and users, but I'm just curious if maybe at
some point would be better to give those with a couple of mailboxes a
murder-free cyrus fork where you can easily patch things ("global
sieve rules" dead thread?) without worrying about breaking murder?
