+\r
+Hmm, I understand. My worry about this approach is the following: Now it\r
+is very straightforward to start using notmuch. You only answer a few\r
+questions when you run notmuch for the first time and then it works. If\r
+we apply your patch, some additional configuration is needed and a\r
+novice might not know how to do it.\r
+\r
+So at least notmuch should tell the user what and where needs to be\r
+configured. Or better, provide some sane default which can be overridden\r
+in a way you want it.\r
+\r
+That's only my opinion. I personally would have no problem with\r
+additional configuration, but on the other side I like programs which do\r
+not steel my time if it is not necessary.\r
+\r
+Bye\r
