I think this would be something complementary and indeed very
useful. But the solution I have proposed is not only to ensure that
there are no unclassified mails, but also to help you classify your
mails if it is not done automatically.

I think there are a lot of people used to classify their emails, so I
think this behaviour could be an option in notmuch (even if not set by
default).
