For me I definitely want a muted thread to disappear in all searches. I
have at least three "inboxes" with sometimes overlapping content. But
yeah, if you don't want that, then you need some other approach than
exclude_tags. If I understand correctly, what you ask for also sounds
easily scriptable:

  % notmuch tag -inbox +muted -- $(notmuch search --output=3Dthreads tag:mu=
ted)

and of course that can be done in a post-new script or equivalent.
