On a tangetial issue: It would help if notmuch were able to set an
(optional) flag when detecting a rename. Similar on how it should set
"new" on new messages, a "moved" tag or whatever would make parsing with
3rd party apps much nicer.

E.g. my folder-to-tag syncer could then just look for moved mails and my
MailDirflag-to-notmuchtag syncer could then limit its search also to
"moved" mails, which would be much more efficient.

What do people think?
Basically what I want is:

notmuch.conf:
tag-for-new="inbox unread notspamchecked whatnothere"
tag-for-moved="moved"

Does this make sense?
