Hi Johannes;

I'm not sure I understand your goal completely here, but the obvious
thing UI wise would be 

  notmuch search --output=authors --format=(json|text|sexp)  $search_terms

Perhaps you're already aware of this, but alot doesn't use the CLI, so
that wouldn't be directly helpful to having a new view in alot.
