It occurred to me that, if we want a redirect router option for all
forms of keep to pass to the next router, it can be done without
modifying the Sieve code at all. The code in the router that calls the
Sieve code can inspect the result, and look for a save to the file
"inbox". If it finds it, it could inspect a router option to decide
whether to behave as now, or instead to pass to the next router.
