Original description:

When I change between my two Inboxes, the conversation list is slow to
populate with the messages. Since both folders are open, it should be quicker.

I see a few things:

  * It takes a moment to clear. This could be #5327 -- I suspect there's some funny business going on with GtkTreeSelection causing Geary to launch unnecessary I/O. It may also be the artificial delay we've put in to take care of users rapidly selecting folder with auto-repeat. I think both could be examined.
  * The envelopes (subject, date, participants) appear in one go. That's good.
  * The previews take a moment to load. I know they're being loaded last, as it's only when the conversations have been sorted do we know what the preview message is. This can be fixed, I think, by giving the ConversationMonitor a notion of a "preview-email" that's determined either with some predefined criteria or a delegate supplied by the client. Then the client can simply call `conversation.get_preview()` and be done with it.

It may be that other tickets will solve this overall problem. If that's the
case, this can be an umbrella ticket closed when those are complete.
