Isn't PHP working on having persistant IMAP connections?  I would think that the code for PHP could be modified to have

    pconnect("host" [, timeout [, persistant_ID]]);

So that you can multiple connections to the same server, each with their own separate persistant_ID.  We would have to do something special to make unique persistant_ids ... perhaps ($username . time()) or maybe just $username for the id.  :-)
