TUSCL feature request: mark all alerts read

HedonistBGMaryland
The new site seems excellent, but there is one more feature I think is definitely needed (unless I'm missing something).
I started a discussion and got over 30 alerts on TUSCL about replies, etc. the first day, and over 30 more the second day. The alerts are really superfluous, because I can just see all the replies by going to the discussion. But the only way I can see to mark them as read is the tedious process of clicking on each one individually, which takes me to the comment, and then I have to navigate several pages back to the notification page to click on another one.
Would it be possible to add some way to mark them all read at once?

last commentBetter yet. A way to chose what you want to get alerts for.
Both suggestions above seconded
Fucking YES!!! to shadowcat's suggestion
Before I jump on the suggestions bandwagon, I want to say that I do really like the new alerts. It's much better, and more engaging, to get these alerts while I'm on the site versus the old email system.
With that said, these improvements (two already mentioned) would be huge:
Damn that was quick
Very quick. Hail, Founder!
@RonJax2 has good suggestions as well.
Thank you for adding a mark all read button Founder!
Just as the Delete All & Read All - most excellent!
