That's thorough work, and I am convinced. Shall we agree on supporting
only regex "^~/" as a representation of ${HOME}/ and continue treating
matches for regex "^(~[^/])" as ${HOME}/\1 then?

As for the implementation: My draft patch was mostly meant to get the
ball rolling. I don't know enough about the notmuch development
ecosystem to feel comfortable adding tests and suchlike, so if one of
you guys were willing to handle this whole tilde expansion feature, I'd
really appreciate that.
