Almost.

The arguments being passed to the "notmuch tag" command in this case
look like:

	notmuch tag -inbox thread:foo or thread:bar or ...

To break that up, we'd have to be careful to neither leave a trailing
'or' at the end of a command line nor to have an 'or' at the beginning
of a command line.
