Patch sent to allow searching of the hidden authors.

Given that the tags are displayed after the subject, I suspect that we
would choose to hide _all_ of the 'non-matching' subject(s), displaying
it only as necessary during isearch.

 Right. We do have a similar approach already for picking out the first
 matching subject. So it would be an easy extension to have it print a
 sorted list of all the subjects.
 
 But let's start by making the emacs interface allow for searching of the
 authors. Then we can think about whether it makes sense to list all the
 subjects as well.

Right. We do have a similar approach already for picking out the "first"
matching subject. So it would be an easy extension to have it print a
sorted list of all the subjects.

But let's start by making the emacs interface allow for searching of the
authors. Then we can think about whether it makes sense to list all the
subjects as well.

All of the authors appear in the output already, but that doesn't seem
to be the case of the subjects. Would you envisage doing something
similar to the changes Dirk made for authors?
