From user's point of view it is something "additional". Instead of
configuring mail setup in single place (MUA, mail program), one has to
set it up both in MUA (retrieve mail from local mail box) and
fetchmail configuration file.
It's not that difficult. Really.

If by that you mean allow you to get your mail via POP or IMAP without

It can appear to be, but the extra words are ignored. You can just use
name-value pairs, which I think are clearer. There is a special editor
