This is a way of trying to make sure notmuch-pick cleans up the split
buffer after itself.
---
Currently if the focus gets into the message pane and then the user
quits from that pane the display stays split. This is an attempt to
fix that. This seems to work but I don't know if there is a better
solution. However, I would welcome any feedback on the user experience
with this patch applied.
Best wishes

We add a hook to the show buffer in the message window to close the
message window when that buffer quits. It checks that the
message-window is still displaying the show-message buffer and then
closes it.
---
This is (probably) a rather better version than the previous
attempt. It uses hooks rather than redefining notmuch-kill-this-buffer
and it avoids errors if the user has made the message pane the whole
frame.
Best wishes

We add a hook to the show buffer in the message window to close the
message window when that buffer quits. It checks that the
message-window is still displaying the show-message buffer and then
closes it.
---
This is just a slightly tidier version of the previous patch. It is
more natural to reuse the nomuch-pick-message-window variable (as it
serves the same pupose) rather than adding a new variable and
cluttering up the name space (and it also keeps the clutter in the
notmuch-pick namespace).
I think this a good candidate for 0.15: it fixes an annoying bug in pick.
Best wishes

LGTM.
