\r
82 I agree, it would be ideal to include the data from show --format=3Djson
\r
83 in the reply JSON. I started down the path of implementing this, but
\r
84 realized it requires either copying quite a bit of code from show or
\r
85 factoring it out, and both options felt kind of dirty. I'd like show
\r
86 and reply to share a function that produces the JSON-formatted body of
\r
87 a message, but it doesn't feel right to expose the entire JSON format
\r
88 and all the functions that go with it from notmuch-show.c and put the
\r
89 structure and all the prototypes in notmuch-client.h.
\r
91 Will Austin's show rewrite make this easier/cleaner? Or am I being too
\r
92 squeamish about moving code?
\r
94 > Anyway, I think you should put this change in a separate patch.
\r
96 Yeah, if I leave it as is it changes a default behavior, so a separate
\r
97 patch would probably be a good idea.
\r

\r
103 I don't think there are any emacs customization changes here, unless
\r
104 we want to implement the notmuch mode config file that was discussed
\r
105 before to give message-citation-line-format and other things nice
\r
106 defaults. Or are you suggesting that there should be some new
\r
107 customization options? (One I can think of would be the list of
\r
108 preferred types for multipart/alternative display, which right now is
\r
109 hardcoded in notmuch-show.el.)
\r
111 > Thank you for this work, it is much appreciated.
\r
113 Thanks for taking the time to review these patches! I think as a
\r
114 result of everyone's reviews I've pushed the series toward what I
\r
115 envisioned/wanted in the first place, rather than the kinda kludgey
\r
116 thing I did initially.
\r
118 Amusingly, I've started a new job since I wrote the original patch and
\r
119 no longer receive much HTML-only email, but I like this patch series
\r
120 enough to see it through anyway :-).
