Nowadays modern devices like to use the IMAP record instead of the "mail" record.
Since the SMTP record was added some time ago because people were used to using SMTP instead of mail, especially mobile devices.
Seems a good idea to me to add the IMAP A record by default too.

This way everything is always compatible, we then have pop, imap, mail and smtp as mail records.

I agree with Richard. Mobile devices use imap and pop3 subdomain in email client setup and it would help server admin to make custom dns a records for these subdomains. imap and pop3 subdomain required as default.
