I think this point makes sense.  I guess my main worry was that querying
the agent would have unintended consequences for someone who is not
expecting it or specifically does not want it to be queried.  But maybe
the point is that if they don't want that to happen, then they should
just not call notmuch with --decrypt.  I suppose that's reasonable.

jamie.
