If you really believe your setup is so much better than what 100s of other sysadmins are doing around the world, then good for you.

Well, it really isnt because it isnt linearly scalable
you know *nothing* about my infrastructure you know *nothing* about my load-balancers you know *nothing* about the vSpehre cluster
These are definitely true. All I know is that it's VMware :) But im interested. What do you do in that infrastructure when your roundcube load exceeds the capabilities of your vmware host server? Do you buy a larger vmware host server? We have 60.000 simultaneous webmail users in peak, so these questions always interest me. In our experience it's much cheaper to scale horizontally instead of vertically.

Well, maybe a little. Not as much as you obviously.
Anyways, we digress. You want specific functionality that isnt really in the interest of most of the roundcube community. That's ok, we have that often as well. There is two ways to go about that. Either you ask nicely and hope someone wants to help you, or you code it yourself and send a pull request through git. I think your best bet at this point in the discussion is the latter.
