Right, so the problem really seems to be in throwing/catching exception.
Function "_notmuch_message_remove_term" is supposed to catch the
exception and ignore it. Which does not happen in my case.

On a side note, I wonder, is catching exception faster than going
through list of tags to see if given tag exists? Might be interesting to
compare.
