Would be awesome if this gets fixed, I think it's the only issue preventing me to go full mbsync+notmuch. Right now I'm using the web interface and other mail tools to go through a huge chunk of unread mail spread over several huge folders. I also know this is the only limitation that prevents some people from going the same way.
