No problem. It was just an itch I had :-). I have to say that I stopped
using the --revsync (change notmuch tags based on maildir flags) as I am
using the patch that does that from within "notmuch new" and which is
much faster than any external script could be.

I am fine with hosting it in contrib or on github whatever others
prefer.

JSON will definitely help. I need to investigate that, and --output will
make help performance. So yes, these are good changes from a 3rd party
perspective. I was thinking of interfacing notmuch.so directly but as
long as the python bindings are still in development, I am not going to
look at this option.

I'll comment on that in JRollins reply in a second :).
