With the vim removed from the inputs, I'd say this could be just
another output?

notmuch:vim
notmuch:emacs

If you use vim and try to install it you will soon realize that
you need vim-full, but then we haven't fixed the ruby-mail
dependency. So possibly moving it to vim is good? I have no
preference I just think it's an mail application just as
python-notmuch is in mail because it has something to do with
notmuch and mail. But I also put ruby-mail into ruby.scm and not
mail.scm and after all, does it even matter? mail.scm isn't so
long that we should be bothered by one more package.
