That only helps with applying tags from notmuch to maildir, not
vice-versa, which is the main thing I was talking about.

But it got me thinking about potential notmuch<->dovecot-keywords
synchronizer running as a separate pass. Although it would have to keep
it's own database of mtimes, tags, etc. is still pretty feasible to
make without changes to notmuch itself.
