I agree.  In fact, I would think we don't need to add anything to the
notmuch config file at all.  I can't think of a use case where we'd want
show --format=mbox to *not* also replicate/export the Status/X-Status tags.
I personally don't use X-Status: but I don't have a problem with my patch
being patched to include them.  It won't cause any problems.
