\r
87 There's been a fair bit of discussion of this at
\r
88 id:"871uqvgrnm.fsf@qmul.ac.uk" (already pointed out on IRC, but I
\r
89 figured I'd point it out here for others).
\r
91 There are some drawbacks to separating out the exclude flag, but
\r
92 personally I think they're minor and that doing so opens up a lot of
\r
93 interesting UI possibilities as well as providing a very clean and
\r
94 consistent interface.

\r
108 This sounds terribly inconsistent to me. Even setting that aside, I
\r
109 can't think of a reasonable way to implement this. What does it mean
\r
110 for a search to reference a specific id? Do you special case when the
\r
111 query begins with the string "id:"? Do you parse the query? Do you
\r
112 check if the unexcluded search matches exactly one message and do
\r
113 something different in that case?
