Thanks, I'm somewhat new to org-mode, so I appreciate that information!

It sounds like you are right about the copyright issues. 

I noticed one thing about your org add-on that would be nice to improve:
it doesn't appear as if you support linking to a thread in
notmuch-search-mode. If I have a search buffer, generated by "notmuch
search tag:notmuch" and I find in there your message with the Subject
"Org-mode support" and I put my cursor on it and do M-x org-store-link,
the link that is generated is to "Notmuch search: tag:notmuch" rather
than to the thread id that is under the cursor. A minor thing, but could
be quite useful.

thanks!
