selecting local Trash in folder selection dialog doesn't work

If you select the local Trash folder in the folder selection dialog, the returned URI is file:$HOME/evolution/local/Trash/, and most (all?) places in the mailer won't deal with that correctly. Eg, dragging a message to the trash is considered the same as deleting it, but selecting the message, clicking the "Move" button, and selecting the local trash will just give you an error.
I've been working on a vfolder rewrite that will address this by having a separate store for trash folders with consistent uri's.
well i never did the rewrite, but this was fixed independently. trash basically just looks like a normal folder to the outside world.
