+I think it's a bit of a shame you are currently forced to interact with\r
+Xapian directly (an implementation detail) to compact the database. This\r
+set seeks to abstract this out. This is especially important since it's\r
+not too difficult to get the invocation of xapian-compact wrong\r
+(e.g. forget --no-renumber).\r
+\r
+Also, in the past Carl (id:"87ocl1lut1.fsf@yoom.home.cworth.org") has\r
+mentioned it would be nice if compact would be run after the initial run\r
+of "notmuch new". This patchset sets the groundwork to enable this.\r
