And even as http://patchwork.notmuchmail.org now.

I agree that in its current form it's not useful, (it seems to be just a
long list of the patches that have ever been submitted).

I seem to recall Martin saying that patches that get accepted will be
automatically detected and removed from the list. Is that successfully
happening now?

At this point, and with the JSON support in place, I think it should be
trivial for someone to write a script that will take a notmuch search
specification and create an HTML view of all the threads matching that
search, right? If so, I'd be happy to regularly post the results of my
notmuch todo list, which, by the way, is currently:

notmuch search tag:todo-notmuch or (tag:notmuch and (tag:todo or tag:inbox))

In the meantime, if someone does want to push some buttons in patchwork,
nothing before 2009-12-01 at least is interesting.
