I have, and support your request. But not only to reply, but more generally to act on (tag, reply, forward) multiple emails. Of course I can select multiple _contiguous_ lines in a search result list, or tree view, and do something with these messages (`notmuch-search-tag` being an obvious example). But not when my selection is (or would be) non-contiguous. > I wonder if it would be easy to add to notmuch's Emacs MUA. > [...] > Problem is, I can't think of an unobtrusive way to add this to notmuch > without adding a lot of machinery. Perhaps the problem can be split into smaller pieces? I think one piece could be to enable the user to select multiple regions (think e.g. zones.el [1]), which could be a problem entirely separate from notmuch.el? [1] https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Zones The second piece could be to extend notmuch.el to make use of multiple regions, and implement more functions that act on such regions. Since there doesn't seem to be a "standard way" of doing non-contiguous regions in Emacs, one third-party "multi-region package" (e.g. zones.el) would need to be picked, and notmuch.el made to detect it's availability and make use of it.
