The idea of doing this was recently discussed in tb-planning by Jim and got several thumbs up. It would significantly modernize us.
Jim writes offers to drive - "Would there be interest in getting this merged into Thunderbird? I'm happy to help drive this, provided others are also willing to help (especially with reviews). It's basically feature-complete, although the NNTP/RSS account summaries could use some improvements. If there's interest in this, I'll put together a list of the bugs/work that needs to be done. "
Would this be in scope for 78? (we've got a few months)

I'll start filing bugs for the work on this. There's a decent amount of preliminary work that we need to do to prepare for landing the actual summaries. Mostly, this will be migrating the bits in Mail Summaries' bootstrap.js file: https://bitbucket.org/squib/mail-summaries/src/default/src/bootstrap.js

Ok, that should be all the blockers for this bug. Most of these can hopefully be adapted from the Mail Summaries code. However, I could definitely use some help with bug 1180463, since I've forgotten most of the gory details of how that code works...

I'm very interested in this and I'd like to help in terms of UI and UX to properly integrate this with our style guide.
Somewhat related, I'm working on bug 1589005, which plans to implement a sort of "Welcome Account Hub" for first time users.
After some discussions with others, we decided to see how this account hub could live in the Account Central tab if the user doesn't have anything set up yet.
I'm doing some mockups to prototype the various states, but this is a rough idea:
- Account Hub taking over the entire first tab to guide users on first set up
- New Account Central (this patch) if the user has at least 1 account configured, with a clear access to the Account Hub UI.

Ah, sorry about that. It was a Mercurial repo and Bitbucket wiped those a while back while I was sidetracked with the craziness of the past year. I still have the repo locally, so I'll try to convert it over to Git and put it back up online.
EDIT: In the meantime, if anyone has plans for merging this into Thunderbird proper, let me know. I've been considering what it would take to update the add-on for 78+ but didn't get very far before I got sidetracked with other things.

I thought I had commented about this, but apparently not. I've partially-reimplemented this (just the folder summary for now) here: https://github.com/jimporter/mail-summaries
