I'd like to see the in as well.

Since we name the action of responding to a message "reply" in the
documentation already, my vote for a default tag to add would be
"replied".

Supporting the removal of a tag as well is clever, but I wouldn't
suggest doing that by default (the patch doesn't anyway). And instead,
people could do things like searches for "tag:reply-required and not
tag:replied".

So here's my vote for someone cleaning this up into a patch that could
be applied directly to notmuch rather than just being a snippet of code
to shove into .emacs.
