Hi, Jani. I haven't looked too closely at these patches yet, although
they seem to look ok at first glance. However, I would like to argue
*against* using new customization variables for the names of certain
static saved searches. For instance I don't see the point of the
"notmuch-saved-searches-nomatch" and "notmuch-tags-nomatch"
customization variables. Do people *really* need to be able to
customize those names? Why not just pick a sensible name and go with
it?
Customization is great, but if there's too much the code and
customization UI become overly cluttered and hard to parse.
