This is nice functionality---we were obviously missing a "forward"
command before. So I've pushed this.

Meanwhile, this does miss one piece of functionality that we have in
"notmuch reply" which is to select the From: address based on which
configured email address of the user was found in the recipient list of
the original message being forwarded.

Any suggestion for this functionality? Does message-mode provide
something similar? And if so, should notmuch.el simply read the notmuch
configuration for the various email addresses and provide them to
message-mode? I definitely don't want new users of notmuch to have to
configure email addresses both inside of notmuch and also inside of
message-mode, for example.
