Hi,

Following the discussion in: id:874mjk614c.fsf@qmul.ac.uk regarding the
behavior of notmuch-show-toggle-message and following hyperlinks, I
wanted to chime in on a similar but not exactly the same topic.

I am blind and use emacspeak (a speech subsystem for emacs) to do all of
my emacs work including reading email with notmuch.

I often arrow down to a part and hit enter only to find that
notmuch-show-toggle-message hides all of the message body because the
point is at the beginning of the line and the part I'm actually trying
to toggle is indented.

Would it make sense to have notmuch-show-toggle-message activate any
item on the same line rather than take the generic action of hiding all
the message text.

I would also like it if for example there was an id or hyperlink on the
line that it was activated.  In the case that there was more than one
then activating the first one unless point is on the second or
subsiquent link sounds like predictable behavior to me.
.

The implication of the current behaviour for me is that when this
happens i need to unhide the message and then move to the part I want to
expand makeing sure I move off the empty space at the beginning of the
line before triggering notmuch-show-toggle-message.

Is this behaviour annoying to anyone else?

If not I'm sure I can work around it using advice or something.


Kind regards
Bart
