existence of half-finished features such as the global database

one of the best parts of TB that could be reused. At the same time,
it should point out that TB didn't move much in the last 5 years
,and the world progressed.<br>
<br>
I'd say:<br>
* historic growth of features like server-side search, quick-filter
and client-side search based on gloda; and message views based on
folders and messages (old style) vs. conversations (gmail style).<br>
* need of 2010 era features like a new address book, sync address
book and calendar with smartphones, automatic message filtering, and
integration of short messaging like WhatsApp.<br>
* keep and extend the distributed nature of protocols of all sorts<br>

I'm saying that gloda is the least of Thunderbird's problems and
anything that places emphasis on it as something that needs to be fixed
without context is likely counterproductive.

I'd happily replace that example or bullet with alternative text, if
you'd like to suggest something. I have no wish to mislead the person
into focussing on the non-critical issues.
