I'm starting to come around to this patch, Keith. :-)

I think one thing we're going to really need is a better help message
for presenting the keybindings. The function names are all really
confusing, (the "notmuch-show" prefix doesn't help). So what I'd really
like is something that displays the keybinding and the first line of the
documentation of a function, rather than the function name itself.

Except that the patch also reverses the current behavior of "a" and
"A". That should be a separate patch anyway, but I'm also not sure that
I like it. I like that the command that takes the extra effort of
pressing shift is the command that does *more*, (removing both "unread"
and "inbox"), rather than the command that does *less*.
