+I'd love to see this happen. The terminology many other mail user\r

+\r
+I like this approach, and i don't think that the caveat you're\r
+describing is a particuarly bad one, though it depends on how\r
+mime-to-mml works.\r
+\r
+I just tested it, and mime-to-mml actually produced something that was\r
+not directly sendable in notmuch-message-mode, because it didn't include\r
+the "--text follows this line--" break between headers and body :/ But\r
+this is probably fixable ;)\r
+\r
+However, mime-to-mml actually embedded the content of the included\r
+sub-part upon reconstruction and the filename was only the leaf filename\r
+(i'd included /home/dkg/tmp/test.txt, and in the reconstructed #part it\r
+said filename="test.txt" nofile=yes)\r
+\r
+Since this doesn't include the original path of the file (and it said\r
+"nofile=yes"), then i don't think it's a problem.\r
+\r
+One thing i should note is that if there's a message-id assigned during\r
+saving of the draft, then we need to think carefully about how a draft\r
+that gets saved multiple times gets indexed. it'll have the same\r
+message-id, which is good, but there will likely be multiple files\r
+referencing it, each with different content. ideally, there would only\r
+be one copy indexed, and it would be the latest one. Also, the\r
+actually-sent mail should be indexed in preference over a previous\r
+draft.\r
+\r
+The above pieces would all be really great to have! In addition, if\r
+they were in place, it'd be good to have an variant notmuch-search view\r
+that lists the recipients instead of the senders, so that i can do a\r
+search for tag:draft and actually see who the messages were sent to,\r
+instead of my own name (as the sender) on each item :)\r
