+We discussed this on IRC. And, surprisingly, everyone agreed on\r
+changing the default to a space in a separate patch.\r
+\r
+But my other comment for this patch is still relevant: please rename\r
+`notmuch-thousands-separator' to `notmuch-hello-thousands-separator'.\r
+\r
+If you decide to make another patch that changes the default to a space,\r
+please add this link [1] to the preamble and a citation:\r
+\r
+ Therefore the space is recommended in the SI/ISO 31-0 standard,\r
+ and the International Bureau of Weights and Measures states that "for\r
+ numbers with many digits the digits may be divided into groups of\r
+ three by a thin space, in order to facilitate reading. Neither dots\r
+ nor commas are inserted in the spaces between groups of three".\r
+\r
+Regards,\r
+ Dmitry\r
