I just tried it, and FWIW, in the short time I used it, it did exactly 
what I'd expect.
Note: you'll only see the new button when you *don't* "automatically 
mark mail as read" in the preferences.

I open a new message. Moving to the next with "Next" leaves it with 
status "Seen". Coming back to it, I can either keep it as "Seen" with 
the "Next" button, or mark it "Read" with the "Read" button. Opening a 
"Read" mail, I can now get it back to "Seen" with the "Unread" button.
Sounds more complicated than it is when you're actually using it.
