227825 - view only new threads or watched threads with new messages

When participating in newsgroups it is very usefull to have the option of
viewing only watched threads with unread message or completely new threads.
When I visit a newsgroup I want to see only new messages in interesteing
(watched) threads and/or totaly new threads. I don't want to see new messages
that belong to unwatched threads.
I hope this is clear enough. I think many frequent newsgroup goers will find
this feature usefull, but even if there won't be a specialy made view for this
purpose I think it still should be possible to configure this with a small
effort. Right now there's not even that option - I cannot even filter the view
on the thread level but only on the message level and that's a shame (that's why
I still use OE :( )
