Ever since I started using Priority Inbox in Gmail I don't really care about my main INBOX folder on Mail.app. Is it possible to change the default INBOX folder to [Gmail]/Important?

This is a very old tip but I can confirm it works. There is also some useful information in the comments section with regards to this.

Apart from this hack there is no other way to do this. I am assuming the global inbox functionality is the reason not allowing you to change it.
