But then I would have to remember invoking
~notmuch config list > ~/notmuch-config~
every time I changed Notmuch configuration.  It would be more convenient
and less error-prone for Notmuch to keep a perennial text file
reflecting the configuration in the database.  Oh, I that file should be
updated not only by ~notmuch edit config~, but also by ~notmuch config
set~.
