That works for me. I have noticed that some people have this
two-step workflow of first tagging stuff (or moving it to some
folder I guess if they use e.g. mutt) and then as second step
do the application and tag stuff as applied and send out mails.

I usually prefer the more
direct "this one patch, apply it, resolved conflicts done" on a
one-by-one basis that's why I wanted it right in the UI.

But I suppose I can just tag one message at the time if I
insist :D

If there is a series I guess you just tag the 00/nn patch and
it picks the whole series?

Being able to just use gmail is really low threshold and can bring
new maintainers in and up to speed I think.
