The poor behaviour is just a side effect of the way that queries are composed to implement the filter functionality.

It's not clear to me that this is broken. notmuch-extract-patch seems to be properly extracting patches from the messages that match the query. If the current `notmuch-show' buffer query doesn't match the entire thread, why should `notmuch-extract-thread-patches' be expected to apply patches from the whole thread?
