The problem is that "notmuch search foo and not bar" will return all
threads containing a message satisfying "foo" and a message satisfying 
"not bar". This makes 

     notmuch search tag:notmuch::patch and not notmuch::pushed

notmuch use.

No, I don't suggest/intend to remove the ::patch tag, only a ::unresolved tag,
since there seems to be no nice way to search for (not notmuch::resolved).
