Subject: [sup-talk] Display size of message or attachments?

Long time reader; first time poster. Massive thanks to everyone who's 
worked on sup (in particular to William). I'm dabbling in sup again now 
with the release of 0.7, which hasn't crashed on me at all so far, hooray!

Sounds like a potentially neat feature. I'd suggest:

   - When viewing lists of threads (inbox-mode, search-results-mode, 
etc), the combined size of all messages together in the thread.

   - When viewing a particular thread (thread-view-mode), showing 
individually for each message.

Alternatively (or in addition?), perhaps even better would be the 
ability to do searches like size:>200k, which would show all messages 
(or all threads?) over 200k in size.

This would be useful for people like me who prune excessively large 
attachments from disk occasionally. (Which at present is a little 
fiddly, involving messing with the Maildir-stored messages then 
sup-sync'ing, but that's another story...)

Cheers,
~Iain
