+\r
+I guess this is a general question we haven't really resolved, namely\r
+sharing configuration information between various notmuch frontends.\r
+.notmuch-config is really the configuration file for the notmuch CLI; it\r
+isn't read by library, so clients using language bindings won't see it\r
+at all by default.\r
+\r
+On a somewhat related note I've been thinking how to best associate\r
+configuration information with a database (see e.g. the thread at\r
+id:1411805835-3563-1-git-send-email-david@tethera.net ). Note that this\r
+would not help this particular case.\r
+\r
+Offhand, I wouldn't be personally to some interface at the library level\r
+wrapping the reading and writing of ~/.notmuch-config, although as I\r
+mentioned before, the size and complexity of notmuch-config.c perturb me\r
+a little as far as being suitable for library code.\r
