Hey! I understand Julien's concern of notmuch but there is one thing
notmuch does besides tagging mail, that is index the mail using xapian
engine. Actually this is all what notmuch can do, plus some MUA friendly
interface so MUAs like mutt or Gnus can use it as a index engine.

I'm still using nnml backend, so nnir is really import to me. I have
experience with notmuch, it is easier to configure than namazu or
swish++ so I think it is a good idea to put notmuch support into Gnus.

Next step is to refactor the nnir interface (and write document!) so adding
a new backend can be very easy.
