This has been tried quite a few times (also) in notmuch mailing list so
far; search 'config and notmuch and xdg' in my active mailstorage shows:
first mentioned 2011-06-24
first RFC suggestion: 2011-12-21
so far last WIP patch (from bremner): 2017-12-30
"simplest" would be just get rid of the config file and use only database...
