That works, however, it's a bit clunky due to missing API. I just
pushed a commit that adds read/write attributes for the "unread",
"locked" and "marked" flags, and read-only attributes for the "new",
"replied" and "forwarded" flags (deprecating the respective is_FLAG()
methods). So with git master, you can now do

#------------------------------
for msg in clawsmail.get_summaryview_selected_message_list():
    msg.unread = not msg.unread
#------------------------------

to toggle the "unread" attribute.
