I tried that, but it fell short for me. I want to stay in a mailbox and
progress through all the unread messages in it. A smart mailbox still
doesn't provide the behaviour I want (you just end up with a mixture of
read and unread messages out of context, with still no way to advance to
the next unread one using a single keypress). It seems like a glaring
omission to leave out this simple usability feature (for how long, now?).

I feel your pain.
