A persistent virtual group based on Notmuch search?

A persistent virtual group based on Notmuch search?

Is it possible to create a persistent virtual group that represents a
Notmuch search? I'd like to have group like

    nnnotmuch:some.name.i.have.chosen

and when I enter the group I get the result of some preconfigured
Notmuch search like "to:info-gnus-english@gnu.org date:30d..".

Ok, I implemented a nnnotmuch back-end myself:

    https://github.com/tlikonen/nnnotmuch

The code works but will need some polishing. There's also one problem
that I've been unable to fix: when I restart Gnus the nnnotmuch server
doesn't show in the server buffer anymore. All groups still work. Gnus
manual is not that great about back-end code and a couple of times it
made me guessing and reading the code of other implementations.
