This reminds me a little bit of the filesystem from BeOS (RIP) and Haiku. You cant attach any metadata to any file you want, and it has a system to create queries on that metadata.

Emails were just files on the filesystem with a filesystem plugin that made their metadata queryable. So the email client was just a file browser window with some pre-saved queries that would let you find all emails by date, sender, etc.
