Gmail's web interface offers two options for spam: "Delete forever" and "Not
spam."

Maybe the solution is to have Archive change to say Delete when you're in the
Spam folder, like we do in the Trash folder.

That's exactly what we need to do. It's similar to how we fixed All Mail and
Sent Mail: #4652.

Do we have any way of indicating that it gets deleted permanently, not stored
in the trash (like I assume happens if you delete from those other locations)?

It seems like trash is the only place where delete is permanent right now,
which kind of makes sense. I'm not sure it's obvious or intuitive that
deleting from spam is also permanent.

I guess it depends if the users look at the button they're clicking on and
understand the distinction between Delete and Archive. Gtk made the
unfortunate choice of allowing themes to disable these labels, which
definitely presents a usability challenge here.

We could consider moving the Spam to the Trash folder ourselves when Delete is
pressed. Or, we could imitate Gmail and morph the button to "Delete forever".
There's just something so permanent sounding about it.
