Hi!

Having worked in the same area ;-), I felt competent to review this.  And
I definitely do like David's approach.  The patches look good, with the
following comments:

What's missing is adding (roughly) the same text to the notmuch manpage,
``notmuch help dump'', NEWS file.  These should be added to the
respective patches, for enhance functionality and deprecation of output
filename.

> 7a203d6 notmuch-dump: treat any remaining arguments after the filename as search t

I would suggest to combine these two into one patch: enhance
implementation (7a203d6) and update the tests (2b7781d) is one unit.

I don't understand the purpose of the second test above.  Was this meant
to be ``notmuch dump dump-1-arg-dash.actual --'' (as suggested by the
description), or ``notmuch dump -- > dump-1-arg-dash.actual''?
