is that it takes forever to delete a message and/or to open a new one.

This might be the case if it hasn't indexed all your messages for the new search service - et's take this to the upstream list/group though.

I will be taking this matter up on the Thunderbird mailing list;
however, I recommend that the old version be included in openSUSE 11.2
RC1, etc.

As Thunderbird 2 will probably not be maintained for security fixes for the life time of 11.2, I don't think this is an option the maintainers should even think about.
Deactivating the indexer for the new search by default would probably be the better option if it comes to this, but this would make search results appear empty.
