I may be missing something here, but I can subscribe and unsubscribe to 
multiple groups either with a shift-select (for a range) or a 
ctrl-select (for non-adjacent groups).

I thought at first it might have been a function of preferences -- I 
have "single-click selects, rather than loads, groups" -- or possibly 
because I use tabbed layout -- but changing both I am still able to 
select and subscribe/unsubscribe to multiple groups. (Though, changing 
back to single-click loads groups, I first have to dismiss the option to 
 download a groups headers before I can select more groups)

This is version 0.14.2.91, but I'm quite sure I've been doing it this 
way for a long time.
