For drafts we want to see recipients, instead +of authors, in the search output. I can imagine other uses for this +series as well, though. + +The first four patches generalize the author list handling in thread +objects to handle any address list. These patches could be applied +regardless of if the rest of the series is accepted. + +After that we modify the thread constructor such that it can hold +thread recipients as well. Since there is overhead in retrieving +thread recipients from the message files (recipients are not stored in +the database) this is handled with a switch. + +Further patches add the new switch to the search CLI that adds thread +recipients to the structured output formats. I didn't modify the text +output format, since there is no way to extend it. I can imagine +tweaking the text output such that the author field is instead +replaced by the recipients (as is done for the emacs UI at the end of +the series), but that's not done here. + +In the emacs UI, I add a new toggle function that will toggle display +of thread authors or recipients in the 'authors' field of the search +output. It's unfortunate that this ambiguity in that field name +remains, but I didn't know how to change that cleanly. I'm working on +some tests for the new emacs functionality that I'll include in the +inevitable v2 of this series. + +The last patch is mostly just a tickle to suggest adding the +recipients to the database. It would make the --include-recipient +searches much faster of course, but it might be overhead in the +database that folks aren't interested in. + +As always, feedback, review, and comments are much appreciated. + +jamie. +
