I did that because I want to be able to have sections in the config file
that pertain to OfflineIMAP -- such as for the Blinkenlights UI.  I figured
that defining OfflineIMAP module sections to contain a dot and others to not
was a reasonable way of making sure that we wouldn't break somebody's
configuration down the road, at the expense of possibly breaking some now.

I'd be glad to have other suggestions on how to solve that one.
