Yes. Personally, I'd prefer first names rather than portions of the
email address. So I don't want to commit a change that takes us in the
wrong direction, (giving less information to the frontends to work
with).

The rest of your vim patches seem totally unobjectionable to me, (but
mostly only because I don't use that frontend). But I am happy to see
someone hacking on it.

So I'll merge these now. And since Bart didn't reply at all in all this
time, Felipe, would you like access to push changes directly to the vim
code? Since we're hosting that code in the notmuch repository I think we
need to have an interested maintainer with the ability to maintain it,
(so that future improvements don't sit idle for months).

I'll send instructions for setting you up with access like that if you'd
like to do that kind of maintenance.

-Carl
