+Add newlines between complete threads to make asynchronous parsing\r
+of the JSON easier.\r
+---\r
+\r
+notmuch-pick uses the JSON output of notmuch show but, in many cases,\r
+for many threads. This can take quite a long time when displaying a\r
+large number of messages (say 20 seconds for the 10,000 messages in\r
+the notmuch archive). Thus it is desirable to display results\r
+incrementally in the same way that search currently does.\r
+\r
+To make this easier this patch adds newlines between each toplevel\r
+thread. So the ouput becomes\r
+\r
+[\r
+thread1\r
+, thread2\r
+, thread3\r
+...\r
+, last_thread\r
+]\r
+\r
+Thus the parser can easily tell if it has enough data to do some more\r
+parsing.\r
+\r
+Obviously, this changes the JSON output. This should not break any\r
+consumer as the JSON parsers should not mind. However, it does break\r
+several tests. Obviously, I will fix these but I wanted to check if\r
+people were basically happy with the change first.\r
+\r
+Also, should devel/schemata be updated? It seems a little unclear as\r
+this is not really a "JSON" change as the JSON does not care about the\r
+newlines.\r
+\r
+Best wishes\r
+\r
+Mark\r
