Allow lone "not" search operators
As suggested by Keith in FLAG_PURE_NOT allows for expressions like: notmuch search NOT tag:inbox Note that this way a search like: notmuch search foobar NOT tag:inbox should not be written instead: notmuch search foobar AND NOT tag:inbox In my opinion, the latter feels more natural and is somewhat more explicit. It gives a better clue of what the search is about instead of assuming that an implicit AND operator is there.
