Hmm. Let's look at this from another perspective: do you know if there's
a reasonable way to make ordering of the customized saved searches
easier? It's not exactly user friendly to move items up and down in the
list. Or to sort them.

On the other hand, the tags are sorted. Saved searches are not. Should
it be possible to display tags in user defined order...?

I know I can twist this the way I want and carry my own modifications,
but I'd like to make notmuch user friendly for people who don't know
elisp.


BR,
Jani.
