It's often useful to see a message in context, particularly as it's
common for people to reference id:'s when referring to a thread (thread:
is instance local, as I recall).

Is there a simple way from `notmuch-show' to jump out to the result of
`notmuch-search' for the current id:? Maybe we could bind ^ to something
like `notmuch-show-in-context'.
