 ===========================
 
+General
+-------
+
+Report config parsing errors from GLib. Previously notmuch silently
+exited with success (0) on parsing errors. Upcoming releases of GLib
+will be more strict about parsing escape codes, causing previously
+parsed config files to report errors. Provide diagnostics to help
+users correct their config files.
