it works on "feeds" (i.e. tagged arts or hot arts), for hot arts '^X' is
the same as the following 3 cmd executed in order:
'@' - revers hot arts
'X' - mark all !hot arts read
'@' - revers hot arts OR '~' undo all selections

there is no '^Y' equivalent as there (usualy) is no such think as a read hot
article.

currently the is no functionallity to mark read/unread tagged arts.

The idea behind this patch is good, there are a few minor issues:
- the keys do not work in the thread-level
- the keys are not documented on the internal help page
- the keys are not documented in the manpage
- instead of having new keys for the functionallity one might add this
  functionallity to 'K'/'Z' (if no hot or tagged arts are available, 'K'/'Z'
  could work the way they do now, if there are tagged and/or hot arts
  we could prompt 'mark t=thread, h=hot, p=pattern, T=tagged articles
  (un)read' like it's done for 's'ave. I'm unsure if the is a good idea.
