You're fully correct, it may not be the best solution for
power users. In this case, an IMAP-capable *local* client
program would be much better. With local caching, you can
also improve speed. And even programs with good keyboard
support are possible, even programs for use in text mode
do exist (a welcome solution for blind users).

Sadly, my dear customers wanted web mail, and they insisted
on RoundCube, so they got it. They're slow in thinkind and
reading, slower in typing, so the program speed is still
too fast for them. That's all the magic behind the story. :-)
