Starting in Mutt 1.12, there is a new function <descend-directory> in 
the browser menu.  This can be used to force Mutt to enter a directory 
that is also a maildir mailbox.

One possible usage might be to bind enter/return to descend directory 
and space to select the entry:

   bind browser <enter> descend-directory
   bind browser <return> descend-directory
   bind browser <space> select-entry
