1) I only skimmed the debian bug, but I hard the impression Werner said
that --batch implied --no-tty?

2) How urgent is this? It will probably be at more than month before the
next notmuch release, due to some sphinx issues that need some
attention. Should we do a 0.28.2 point release ? I'd say basically if
you think it's worth patching for debian we should do the point release
for everyone.
