InboxWritable caching the result of ->importer leads to a circular references with returned (V2Writable|Import) object holds onto the calling InboxWritable object. With public-inbox-watch, this leads to a memory leak if a user is reloading via SIGHUP after a message is imported (it would only become noticeable with SIGHUPs after every message imported). I would not expect anybody to to notice this in real-world usage. I only noticed this since I was making -xcpdb suitable for long-lived process use (e.g. "mod_perl style") and a flock remained unreleased on v1 inboxes after resharding. WatchMaildir (used by -watch) already handles caching of the importer object itself, and all of our other real-world uses of ->importer are short-lived or designed for batch scripts, so there's no need to cache the importer result internally.
