Hi.
How would I add a reply key binding to reply directly from the search
mode. ie something like R. Forward and editnew would be nice as well.
Thanks,
Phil

This could indeed be useful, but I'm not convinced this is a great idea in general:
What would that command do if your selection is a thread with multiple leaf-mails?
reply to the first? ask the user?
cheers,

I have yet to implement this in bower, but my idea is to reply to the
only message in the thread with the "unread" tag. Abort if there is
more than one such message.

It's worth noting that this question is unresolved for Notmuch in
general. My reply patchset disables the CLI reply command for searches
returning multiple messages, which will also disable this
functionality in emacs. Right now it "works", but doesn't really
produce desirable behavior.
