Small addendum : To follow up from that, it would be really, really,
really nice if operations like M-u worked on the region of selected
articles too - as it is when you hilite a bunch of articles and press
M-u the general assumption would be that all articles selected would be
marked as unread. Only the one under the cursor is - I think a definite
userability improvement if mark operations respect all selected articles
in the region.
