Bug Description

Mako
Rc-proposed

Issue:
Viewing and responding to message from quick settings doesn't mark message as read.
Furthermore, if viewing message in messaging app, you must scroll up to that message in order to decrement the unread message counter.

This feature makes a lot of sense as is, but some people send flurries of messages and it is often that some messages get pushed up beyond conviences of viewing them. As a result, there is always an inread message counter.

A few things could be considered:
- mark message(s) read if replied to from quick settings
- mark all messages read when conversation is opened in messaging app*
-* option to mark all messages as read or jump to the oldest unread message
