Thanks for posting this. It seems I need to dig up the link you posted for the bug to restore the status bar (I lost it I don't know how many months back, and search engines are doing nothing to help me find it). I keep thinking maybe it's on my own blog, but only if you put it there in a comment. It's been like a year since we last discussed it and I'm wondering, did they wait for everyone to shut up so they could quietly shelve ever coming through with it, or is any progress being made?
Now that I see it, I think it's the one; what tells me is I remember how badly all the "hidden comment - advocacy/me-too" blurbs got me last time - they're getting me again now. Oh, and comments closed. In other words, if you ever see this feature again, it'll be after it's been nice and quiet on this page anywhere from five months to a few years, maybe when Jupiter aligns with Venus after a Dem gets elected pres in 2020, but this could still all crash and burn if we make a deal with Yahoo over Google for search which could happen anytime now, so go away.
There are a lot of good CSS files all over the place and some download status bar add-ons, but without API access it's still all kind of half-baked, isn't it.
