Description
If a folder has unread messages which are not the root of a conversation, and a threaded view is in effect over the folder, and the threads are all collapsed, it is not obvious where the unread messages are.
The displayed properties of the collapsed thread object item should perhaps inherit a logical union of the display properties of the messages that it contains, so that for instance if the thread contains at least one unread message, the collapsed thread can appear as an unread message.
It's not adequate for the collapsed thread to simply indicate the properties of only the root message.

For me it's obvious, you can modify css to get bold instead of underline.

By the way, I did not notice there is a dedicated icon for unread children in the tree already: unread_children.png. The patch should use that instead. I can make a flagged_children.png based on the same pattern.

Oops, this is a duplicate of #1486701.
I didn't notice that the subject is underlined when there are unread messages in the thread.
The UI is not satisfactory; #1486701 deserves a re-opening.
