How do i REMOVE an "Important" or "To Do" Tag with a Filter?

i wish to tag various emails that have "response needed" in the subject line with the Tag of "important" or maybe "to do", in order for me to easier see which ones i need to do something with (out of the multiple hundreds of other emails per day i get), so i created a filter to do just that (if subject contains: 'XYZ' then: Tag as "Important")...

so far so good: that portion of this process works great, no problems at all... however...

Once i have actually read that email and done what's required of me, i would then like to have a second filter that will check the status of read/not-read and if that email has been read, then it would REMOVE the highlighted "important" or "to do" tag and turn it into a normal email again, but there is no option available to pick from in the"perform these actions" portion of the filter builder drop-down menu for removing a tag from a message... i can change a NON-Tagged email into a Tagged email, and i can pick any of the five tags (important, work, personal, to do and later), but i cannot actually REMOVE any of those tags from a tagged email to turn it into a "plain" email again... IS there a way to do this?

any help would be appreciated... i'm running Win 7 Ultimate, with TB 67.7.0 (32bit) with no extensions nor other add-ons.

With FiltaQuilla, Remove Tag can be added to the filter actions (see picture).

Thanks, I was hoping that stock TB could do it without any add-ons, but oh well... i guess that now all i need to worry about is the add-on breaking during future updates...
