Mine is 52 and "New messages (1,826)", which turns me off looking at either.

The UI under the "52" doesnt show me 52 notifications - it shows me
about 20.  It includes a "mark all as read" link, but I cant guess
whether that will mark the ~20 as read (which would be good, as they
are all Talk:Flow), or all 52, including the 32 I cant see (which
would be bad as an important/interesting notification could be in the
other ~32).

I dont mind 1,826 new messages as much, but would love
[[Special:NewMessages]] to first let me pick which threads I want to
read or mark as read based on only the thread page and 'section' name.
