Thanks, IMHO that's better than my previous solution. And it makes my
.emacs smaller, woohoo! :)

One little issue though: you did not update notmuch-show-mode-map in
notmuch-show.el. I'll reply with a patch that fixes that (or you can
just integrate it in your commit when pushing it).

I'll also send a few additional patches that make it possible to choose
the "From" address when forwarding a message and when replying to a
message.
