Is it sane to have python bindings that need updates or would a plain
wrapper of the notmuch script (that maybe needs less updates) be better?
I don't want to imply that this can be answered with yes/no, but more to
get a comparison of the two approaches.

Na=C3=AFvely, I imagine there is a header file and the generation of the
python bindings happens rather automagic.

Point taken, I don't use them yet, I might in the future.
