What about binding `T e' `T E' in summary mode to a new command
`gnus-summary-mark-thread-as-expirable' that would mark every unmarked
article in the thread after and including the current article as
expirable? Perhaps with optional argument meaning also mark marked
articles. Plus if executed on the root of the thread, it will not
cause thread to be opened (ie. shown).
Or is there already any easy way to do this? Currently when I decide
I don't want to read anything in a thread I have to do `E' for every
article in it.
For extra credit: Automatically add a score file entry that ensures
that all future articles in the thread will be marked as expirable and
never displayed.

Easy enough. Just use the code for gnus-summary-kill-thread as a template.
Or use total-expire and just use that function.

In auto-expirable groups, C-k DTRT.

`T #' process-marks all the articles in the thread, and you can then
use `M-& e' to mark them as expirable. Bind that to a macro if you
wish.
