Example:

- Message 1
  - Message 2
    - Message 3
      - Message 4
  - Message 5
    - Message 6
  - Message 7

With the point on message 2, have a `notmuch-show-open-or-close'
function that opens/closes all message beneath Message 2 (included), but
does not touch the expansion of Message 1, 5, 6 or 7.

Somehow I had misded M-RET... :p  Thanks!

I found a bunch of variables, none of which is documented:

Functions:
- isearch-open-overlay-temporary
- isearch-open-necessary-overlays
- outline-isearch-open-invisible

Variables:
- outline-isearch-open-invisible-function
