I think that is PITA too...

In your case perhaps disabling indentation could be a good first aid ?
In customize-group notmuch-show there is entry
Notmuch Show Indent Messages Width defaulting to 1 -- setting that to 0
would disable indentation -- (setq notmuch-show-indent-messages-width 0)
do the same.

Hmm, In text/plain content I have id: -links active -- and pressing TAB
moves me to next id (or part) button. What kind of feedback do you get
when pressing TAB in notmuch-show buffer?

It is. that *should* work in the beginning of line, at least with part
