I have a search that I use to quickly delete some regular messages that I receive from a monitoring system, but some of them I want to keep.

Because the subjects are all the same they all appear within the same conversation threads.

If I turn off threading temporarily, then the search results show just the messages I want to delete and then I can select-all and delete, leaving just the ones I need to devote special attention to.

I love the conversation threads and don't want to lose that permanently and find it a bore having to turn them off through the settings and then back on again afterwards.

What would be great is to either have a special tag that goes in the search or a different URL (like the basic HTML view) which would disable the conversation thread view just for that search.

Not specifically the solution you were looking for, but you can delete individual messages from a threaded conversation. You just need to use the message menu rather than the global delete button.

What you need to do here is: view and delete the messages using Mobile version of GMail

It will also open in your Computer.
