RE: Conditional Second [Third?].

I have no objection to having the ability to clear the message counter on individual threads, but would strongly object to the suggested placement. When destructive things are placed so close to frequently used things, it's easy to make mistakes. I'd hate to hit the "Clear Thread" link when I meant to hit the "(XXX new)" link. I have hit the "Clear 'New Message' Counts" link instead of the first thread several times in the last year and a half.

Maybe if a confirmation screen was added, too.
