I think so, but the devil will be in the details. Probably it will be sufficient to change the template for the composite column (the constructed one) to use "Yes" and "No" instead of "read" or "unread".

I have a similar problem. My "Read" column has many possible values because I use it for priority as well as status. Once all this works I will split the two apart, using the current column to control what I transfer to the device and the yes/no column to keep track of what I have read. I probably won't use the "No" value, and will use bulk edit to copy my existing "read" indicator to the yes/no column as "Yes".
