OP, please deliver. It is super important to me that the original emails are preserved somewhere. Is this so?
Not OP, but to answer your question - yes, the original emails are preserved. More info: https://trysignal.com/using-signal/
It's not immediately clear to me what problem this is solving.
Signal currently allows you to edit the emails in your inbox so you can get rid of irrelevant info (or even add info) as you see fit. We're experimenting with auto summarization (check out the website for an example).
The goal is to make the inbox a better to-do list.

So this implies that the emails would look unedited when accessed over IMAP?

Of course! Once you edit the email you can click on the 'Restore' button (visible inside the email) to display the original and toggle to your changes again by clicking 'Revert'
Having it show on hover could be convenient I think.
Offtopic: the feature I lack is to permanently add some info (like tags) so that email is searchable by some keywords, but I guess that's harder to make (and should be done on gmail side).

Does Gmail labels fall short of your need?
I like the idea of re-naming these as a form of mini-notes. But now that Gmail is getting into providing context for emails (such as flight check-ins), I'd like it if the auto-generated emails could also learn based on summaries I provide. Kind of like a filter rule based on what I've done in the past to re-name the email to what I'm looking for.
This is such a great idea. Like if you could somehow turn the massive emails chocked full of garbage from airlines into something that just says: MCO > JFK 9/18 1:00 PM EFZG94
Now, I just forward the email to tripit and I have an item in my calendar (that is shared with my wife) that has just the relevant info (flight time, number, conf #, etc) so I can see it any time and so can she.
No more looking at those awful emails (which I just archive as soon as I forward it).

I don't think so. Maybe if I'd need it much more, I could somehow come up with greasemonkeying UI to use labels for this, but currently I think labels are more like folders.
