These are good points. I agree that since ~/.cache is an XDG standard
we should resolve the appropriate environment variables.
If notmuch-mutt is accepted into notmuch upstream then it really becomes
a part of notmuch and isn't really "public" anymore (at least in the
sense that you're using). So I don't really see any problem with having
it use ~/.cache/notmuch.
