Good catch--and a good question. It *was* the expected behavior in Evo <= 1.4.x, then behaved inconsistently in 1.5.x, so I filed this bug: http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=58629 ...then someone decided to change it, to what you saw in 2.0.0... which was reported by someone else as a regression bug (changing of expected, previous behavior): http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=65448 ...which was then fixed, resulting it what you see today... which I can see is still broken as I originally reported it was. Guess I'd better re-open my original bug. So the short answer is "yes": Marking as "read" when opened in a separate window is expected behavior, and I for one am glad it's back the way it was--but now that the Evo-hacking wizards have gotten the next/previous buttons to work right in that window, it just needs a little more love to be perfect.
