This is only in notmuch-search mode, so it only operates on full
threads.

That could work too. The main reason I implemented this is that, as an
emacs user, I kept intuitively trying to tag messages in this way, and
it wouldn't work.

I actually was thinking of combining regions and marking (let's call it
that to keep from getting confused with notmuch tags) -- i.e., have
region selection in search mode also mark messages. And then there could
also be a message-by-message way if you wanted to mark disjoint
messages.

Best,
