This is not unlike how the gmail frontend handles mails in 'categories'.
Can't be of much assistance, but interested in your solution :).

Maybe something like: add mu4e-mark-all-new-for-setting-not-new (:)) to
mu4e-index-updated-hook and mu4e-headers-mode-hook?
The marks can then be applied like mu4e normally does

Just thinking out loud..
