I am not sure I see how this would work without cluttering up the customize options significantly. The notmuch-search-line-faces allows selecting the face based on any tag (so for example I use different colours for emails tagged "work", and tagged "waiting"). We could have additional notmuch-search-line-unread-face which could then be used in the above -- but now the user has two places to customize the same thing. How do you see this working? (We probably could make the default depend on light or dark theme to make the default more usable.)
