Seems clear enough a request, here.  I like it.  Have you filed a
enhancement bug on it yet?  (There are already enhancement bugs
open on returning the overall message count to the groups pane, and on
putting the unread/total or selected message count when appropriate in the
title bar, but I don't believe I've seen a request for scoring hit status
just yet.)

Of course, such changes aren't going to be until after 1.0, which is
imminent, so I'd set the target at pre-1.1 when I filed the bug.
