NOPE.
For account sync to be reliable and largely pain-free, credentials would also need to be synced. Which is a massive security no-no, as you don’t control the cloud they’re synced across. It’s why I still rock a pre-cloud version of Mailwasher.
Besides, aside from initial set-up, how frequently do your account settings need to be updated? I have run the same Thunderbird setup without any major changes for about 15 years now. A good ⅘ of my accounts in TB are unchanged since initial set-up in 2004.
