+Previously, tag-based search result highlighting was done by creating\r
+an overlay over each search result. However, overlays have annoying\r
+front- and rear-advancement semantics that make it difficult to\r
+manipulate text at their boundaries, which the next patch will do.\r
+They also have performance problems (creating an overlay is linear in\r
+the number of overlays between point and the new overlay, making\r
+highlighting a search buffer quadratic in the number of results).\r
+\r
+Text properties have neither problem. However, text properties make\r
+it more difficult to apply multiple faces since, unlike with overlays,\r
+a given character can only have a single 'face text property. Hence,\r
+we introduce a utility function that combines faces into any existing\r
+'face text properties.\r
+\r
+Using this utility function, it's straightforward to apply all of the\r
+appropriate tag faces in notmuch-search-color-line.\r
