Hi notmuch folks--

I have some e-mail correspondents with complex and unmemorable e-mail
addresses who either don't use a display name in their "From:" header,
or use a non-sensical display name.  If i see an e-mail with "From:
mrq3xizik <mrq3xizik@example.com>" it's hard for me to know who that is in
the sea of all my other messages, even if i've corresponded with them
before.

However, once they have proved themselves a reasonable correspondent, it
would be nice if i could see their mails annotated with a name of *my*
choice.  Is there a straightforward way to do that with notmuch-emacs?

I'm thinking of this like a "petname":

I'm thinking this would be a local binding from e-mail address to
petname, somewhere in the notmuch database.  "notmuch search" would
indicate the petname, and somehow mark that it *is* a petname, as
opposed to what is in the header field.

Is this already possible, or am i making a feature request?
