Still confused by "doesn't do anything".  Everything works for me.

Example: Select one read and one unread message.  So 2 messages are selected.
How would you select BOTH as seen (or both as unseen) unless you had  
two options?  Once you have multiple messages, you can't have a simple  
"toggle" button anymore, since the semantics of the button don't make  
sense when the selected messages are of different flag values.
