Hi Dominik, please find a couple of comments below. I'm on the road,
replying on a phone, so this is not very thorough...

Maildir syncing usually refers to the maildir flag and notmuch tag syncing
in the notmuch context. The above is bound to be confusing.

Ditto.

This is subtler than it looks. This would allow --no-hooks to be placed in
the middle of tag operations. Same for any future arguments. And it would
prevent removal of a hypothetical -no-hooks tag... I think we'll want to
support specifying "--" twice to separate arguments from tag ops, and ops
from query. And it must be forbidden to mix them.

Can't check further context atm, are you sure not to run post-tag if
there's an error?
