Research direction

Start at the series-list view described in the issue and trace how the existing full-series mbox download is exposed from an individual patch page. Add an obvious series mbox download entry to the series view, then verify that it produces the same full-series download without requiring an individual patch.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

We need a series mbox download button visible when I view a series rather than just on the individual patch pages.

This is contrary to the approach of treating "viewing a series" as merely "applying a series ID filter over the list of all patches", but this needs to happen somehow - it's so unintuitive to have to click an individual patch to get a full series mbox that I somehow managed to forget it was there.
