110 I was looking whether the same customization variable has been put
\r
111 into multiple groups (now those are also in message-insertion group like
\r
112 you have in your patch). (So far) I haven't seen that to be done
\r
113 (not that it forbids doing so, just that there aren't issues about that).
\r
115 >From consistency point of view all the customization variables in notmuch
\r
116 groups start with "notmuch-" and these "message-" breaks this... An
\r
117 alternative to the above could be the following:
\r
119 (defgroup notmuch-reply
\r
120 '((notmuch-message-replied-tags custom-variable)
\r
121 (message-insertion custom-group))
\r
124 I.e. first moving notmuch-message-replied-tags to this new group
\r
125 and (only) referencing the message-insertion group from notmuch-reply
\r
126 group (the message-citation-line-format & message-citation-line-function
\r
127 are the first variables in message-insertion group, which is nice).
