Good, if everyone is in favour of it, we just have to found together
the best way to implement it.
There's some good ideas by now, let's read yours :)

TF> "P" (and in orange colour if you like ;-)).
I don't really mind the color :)))
But what I want is to have the *folder* color to change, so I've not
to open it to see if there is just "seen" in it, or if there is also
"new"
TF> This can be toggled on and
TF> off like the "parked" icon.
You idea is good.
For me not enough, because, in this case, I would have to act with
each non urgent post (or, may be, I don't really understand what means
"focus).
What about Ali idea to have a shortcut (I would prefer a click on an
icon) which change *all* the "unread" in a folder to "seen"?
So, just have glance, nothing urgent, click, every "new" is no more
"new" but "seen".
Of course, with your system, you can change back one of them, if you
want...
The two things seems to go well together:
You could act, as you want, on each post or on the whole folder.
I like the idea of the bat moving its wings only when there is "new"
somewhere, too.
