Another option that would be general to several commands would be:

	notmuch search --output=files --exclude-duplicates

Or alternately, --include-duplicates. That might be more useful for
"notmuch show" which is a case where users have previously asked for the
ability to ask for duplicate messages, (and where the duplicates are
squelched by default).

Thoughts?
