+I concede that it's possible to move forward with this idea in a way\r
+that satisfies an immediate need while still being flexible going\r
+forward.\r
+\r
+With that in mind, I think I stand by my suggestion that the form should\r
+match exactly the notmuch subcommand format.  Even considering the\r
+technical issues that Jani brought up, I still think it makes the most\r
+sense to imagine generic batch processing handled by the top level\r
+binary.  And in that case the most logical format for the input is\r
+probably just that of the CLI arguments.\r
+\r
+Just out of curiosity and for the sake of argument, if we were going to\r
+design a server/batch processor from the ground up would it make sense\r
+to use a format like this, or would we better off opting for some other\r
+more established protocol?\r
