Another simple workaround:

What I do is just mark the newest junk mail item that I checked as
"Important", just hit the space under the "!" column. This leaves that
mark there so when I go to check again, I just check from the newest up
to the first one that's marked important. It's true that this means that
I won't see things that have the dates screwed up and show up as earlier
than they were actually sent, but those are all spam anyway.

The other option that I think would work fine is to delete the spam
messages as you check them. The training has already been done, so you
shouldn't have to keep them around for any reason. I just don't do this
every time as it is slower than just scanning the subjects, I do clear
the Junk folder out periodically.

Hope that's useful, though I know it's not exactly what you were asking
for.
