I'd floated notmuch-dtag earlier [1].  Does that sound right?  Or do
folks prefer another name?

In tests/, or devel/dtag/tests?  If the latter, how should I handle
the test framework?  Symlinks to the main tests/?  Copies?  Sharness
submodule?  Other ideas?

That seems like something that could be handled independently.  If
folks want to set it up, adjusting the !command handler in notmuch.c's
main() or adjusting find_command to fall back to “this is probably an
external command” seem doable.
