To each his own.  I prefer the current behavior, because it allows me to 
delete the message I'm reading, quickly and easily without my hands 
leaving the keyboard, and still leave the "next message" unread, as I 
don't have time right at the moment to deal with it, and leaving it 
marked unread (which selecting it would undo) leaves me a reminder for 
later.

Hopefully Benny will be able to accommodate us *all* with a plethora of 
settings. :)
