In debbugs threads, it's not uncommon for a leading "[bug#NNN]" in the
subject to be converted to "bug#NNN:" [*]. I'm not sure what the
source of this is, but it prevents the suppression of an otherwise
identical subject.
It's probably not worth normalizing before the comparison to get full
suppression, but it'd be nice to at least elide the main part of the
subject so it's more obvious that it didn't change. Add a special
case so that "bug#NNN:" prefix is treated the same as a bracketed
prefix.
[*] example:

In addition to suppressing identical subjects (after stripping "re:"),
public-inbox's web interface will compare the current line's subject
with the previous line's, and cut off the shared tail:
[PATCH] Add basic integration for Rmail
` <suppressed completely>
` [PATCH v2] " <-- here
` <suppressed completely>
I think the above is helpful. However, in some cases, I find the
presentation more confusing than helpful:
[PATCH 0/3] notmuch: Improve handling of attached patches
` [PATCH 1/3] piem-notmuch--with-current-message: Declare debug and indent specs
` [PATCH 2/3] piem-notmuch-am-ready-mbox: Improve handling of attachments
` <suppressed completely>
` [PATCH v2 0/3] notmuch: Improve handling of attached patches
` [PATCH v2 1/3] piem-notmuch--with-current-message: Declare debug and indent specs
` [PATCH v2 2/3] piem-notmuch-am-ready-mbox: Improve handling of attachments
` [PATCH v2 3/3] gnus, notmuch: Absorb now-shared bits into patch attachment helper
` [PATCH "
It takes me a second to figure out what the omitted bits in the last
line's subject are. I'm not sure, but I think the subject truncation
that I find clear is where the omitted text is the main subject after
a bracketed tag (i.e. "[tag] main"), not more or less.
Teach piem-lei-query-thread to split the subject into a "prefix" (some
number of "[tag]" items) and a "main" part (everything else), and
elide a line's main part if it matches the previous line's. In the
above example, the last line would be
` [PATCH 3/3] …

piem-lei-query-thread strips a message's subject of "re: " before
checking matches the previous line's subject and should be dropped.
"re: re: <subjects>" unfortunately don't seem uncommon, so strip
multiple "re:"s.

public-inbox's web interface suppresses a message's subject when it
matches the previous lines [*]. Teach piem-lei-query-thread to do the
same to make it easier to spot subject shifts and identify subthreads.
[*] notmuch-tree-mode does similar, displaying "..." instead.

It seems likely that the caller wants to start digesting the thread in
the context of the seed message, and that message may be part of a
large thread. Move point to help orient the caller.
Notmuch nicely distinguishes search hits from other messages when
displaying a thread. Something along those lines is worth considering
eventually.

piem-lei-query presents a message-based overview. In many cases the
caller will want to use that search result as a seed for finding the
associated thread. Add a command that construct thread for a given
message.
The threading algorithm is based on public-inbox's. Some details may
have been lost in translation, but I haven't spotted any differences
yet when doing side-by-side comparisons of output from
piem-lei-query-thread and public-inbox's web interface. And testing
with a few ~100-message threads, the performance seems to be okay.
The appearance also follows public-inbox's, which I like.

The output is intended to resemble search in public-inbox's web
interface: an entry for each matching message. This is different from
notmuch-search's output in that results are not grouped in their
thread. I like notmuch's interface, although I'm not sure that trying
to reshape lei-q's JSON output into something like that is worth the
code complication or computation cost.
The plan is to eventually wire this up to a transient to allow the
caller to specify arguments (e.g., --only to restrict the search
results to a particular inbox).

Piggyback off of message-* faces to hopefully fit in nicely with
themes and expectations. Leave other highlighting (e.g., of diffs),
until later.

piem-lei-show switches to the message buffer with pop-to-buffer, but
that behavior won't work well in the context of a mode that gives an
overview of lei-q search results. In that case, a wrapper command
will want to control the display of the buffer so that it can keep a
split window layout and avoid switching to the piem-lei-show-mode
buffer.
And more generally, Lisp callers are likely to want to handle the
display themselves. Add an optional 'display' parameter that defaults
to nil for non-interactive calls.

This command is a simple wrapper around `lei q --format=text m:MID',
letting lei handle the details. Things will eventually need to get
more complicated (e.g., attachment handling, signatures, replies), but
this should do for now.
