I guess if we're going to treat it as a first class citizen, then yeah,
it should be in the notmuch- namespace. It would also need some tests.
I'm not sure how (or if) to address the problem that most notmuch
commands are actually invoked via the main binary, but I don't think we
have any logic to transform "notmuch foo" to a call to an external
binary notmuch-foo.
