Overall I like this series and am happy to give it a +1 as is but have a
few comments which might be worth considering.

Is the order of filenames clear? eg is it the order that notmuch new met
them? In particular is duplicate=1 the oldest and duplicate=N the
newest? If so that might be worth mentioning in the manpage.

Is it deliberate that dupe == 0 is not covered? If my newest oldest
thing above is correct then maybe dupe == 0 could be the all option +N
the Nth oldest and -N the Nth newest. This may be not-trivial enough
it's not worth doing.

Should there be an error message if duplicate=x is chosen with
output!=files?

Best wishes
