More Statuses/Own

It would be great to have more statuses or even your own (I know you can in
Messenger Plus! but would be better as default for Live) Also the statuses
are more work based, and I think there should be a few more.

Greetings,

Well this was actually considered "solved" with the inclusion of the "personal status
message" (note the status message part), as you can then set yourself away and add a message
being more specific.

Of course as you know, it ended up being used more for witty statements, URL spam and emo
lyrics but it's there nonetheless.

Yes, and the feature is fantastic! In fact, I'd like to see a Plus! like
implementation where we can save personalized statuses, even if it's just a
limited number of them.
