Hey, David.  Thank you so much for this!  I was really hoping someone
would eventually pick this up, and your solution is great!  This new
behavior is *much* nicer.  I really like it.

I haven't done a full code review, though, just tested it out.  I may
not be able to get to it for a while, so please don't hold this patch up
on my account).

These new features enabled by this are very cool!  I love them both.  I
bet there are other interesting toggle features that could be enabled by
this.

I'm not sure I understand this.  `notmuch-show-process-crypto' *is* what
sets the default for the `notmuch-show-process-crypto' buffer-local
variable.  How would you change the current behavior or settings (beyond
just a variable rename)?

I intentionally put this in a separate section in case there were
eventually other needs for this setting beyond just show mode.  I
personally think we should just leave it where it is, particularly since
it's been there for a while.

jamie.
