I'll keep that in mind, but lack of time, won't probably let me play
with it...

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now.  Basically =E2=80=9Cnotmuch search
=2D-output=3Dthreads is:mute=E2=80=9D and then join all the lines with =E2=
=80=9Cor=E2=80=9D to
finally do =E2=80=9Cnotmuch tag +mute <threads>=E2=80=9D.  I was, however, =
hoping for
something more dedicated.
