X does not mark the unselected articles as read unless you exit the group.
And, doing X a second time brings back those unselected articles. In other
words, X works as a toggle command.

I.e., you can do:
	X
	[->see only selected articles]
	[read zero or more selected arctles]
	X
	[->see all (unread) articles]
