Every Xapian document (thing in the database) has a data area that stores an arbitrary string. That string is not usable for searching (unlike terms or values), but can be used e.g. for display. Currently we don't use this part of the Xapian document at all. While I was working adding all of the subjects of multi-file messages for regex search, it seemed like it might be useful to fix the default subject displayed to the user independent of how search terms/values are added. I also have the feeling this might be useful for encrypted headers. Before I suggested that I wanted to get a clearer idea of how hard that would be to do.
There's really not that much new code here, it's mainly tests, and some code movement. Unlike message properties, these are not currently backed up. I guess that could be done, although I'd like to have a clearer idea of the use cases before I do that. _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
