You're right.

What about a failure to sync tags to maildir flags?

I now noticed that database modifications aren't flushed until the
notmuch_database_destroy call (right?), which has no return value and
failure of which is silently ignored.  That's acceptable in the default
mode, but with --must-index the failure should be reported (and the
file deleted).
