And that is what I use 'a' for, please don't take the single-key binding
away for this. I often glance at a thread, decide it's not interesting
for me and archive the whole thread including all unread messages.

It works perfectly for me. Adding another key for "only archive this
message" would be fine. Do people actually use the "x" keybinding? I
know I don't.
