I'm glad to know there are other people annoyed by UI race conditions :). Even after a quick look at the code I'm not sure what ThreadViewMode will do when a thread is added to. It might actually archive/read/etc new messages but not display them. I'd like a keybinding to reload/redisplay the thread and a status bar note if there are new messages. Any label changes should only affect messages that have been displayed.
