I think it'd be useful.  I'll give you an example that always bugs me:
if I look in "unread" (the standard startup screen search) and see some
new message in a long thread of which I've deleted a bunch of messages,
and I type 'd' to delete, it actually first undeletes (or to be precise,
it toggles the already-present deleted tag on) all the already-deleted
messages in the thread, then I have to hit 'd' again to delete all of
them.

If it were a message view instead of a thread view, I could just delete
the dang message ;-)
