I thought about that too, but figured it should be rather rare that
someone wants only a portion of some messages _counted_, but all
displayed when clicking on the search next to the count.

I'm somewhat indifferent, since I rarely use those links
directly, so any more opinions on this are very much appreciated.

Well, it already was sort of a non-configurable saved searches section
before, so I didn't really turn it into one. :)

Since the main difference between those sections is the clear visual
distinction, it might be an option to provide the user with functions to
easily declare new sections for the hello screen, where this sort of
thing is configurable. (One possible use that comes to mind would be to
group tags into different categories.)
