I don't want to add a new top-level command for this functionality,
(which is fairly special-purpose), since I want to keep the notmuch
command-line easy to learn and use by actual humans.

And an actual human would rarely have any need to call this command.

So maybe bury this under "notmuch reply --output=guess-from" or
something like that?
