+Database changes
+----------------
+Store a reference term for every message-id that appears in
+References. We just started doing this for newly-added documents, but
+at the next convenient database-schema upgrade, we should go back and
+fix old messages to be consistent.
+
+Start indexing the List-Id header, (and re-index this header for
+existing messages at the next database upgrade).
+
+Start indexing the message file's directory ana make it available for
+search as "folder:" (and re-index this value for existing messages at
+the next database upgrade).

+Add support for the user to specify custom headers to be indexed (and
+re-index these for existing messages at the next database upgrade).
