Yes, that's the link. The last I had read about it, someone had said it was scheduled to be fixed in some future release, which wasn't anytime soon.
Every time I look at that page, I'm heartened by the part at the top that says "Modified: 4 days ago". It makes me hope that maybe the bug is being worked on after all. But I found the page's history link: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_activity.cgi?id=1215064 and I think that those "CC" updates are only people signing up to be notified about changes to the bug's status. Sigh.
For the workaround mentioned in the page linked to in this post, I did find out how to change the status bar's background color; it's normal CSS syntax: Use the same "background" color value in the #browser-bottombox and #statuspanel-label sections, along with !important.
I also figured out how to have an image file displayed as the background, instead of a solid color, so that the status bar will match my browser theme (like the way it was pre-Quantum): For #browser-bottombox, use an entry like this, with the relative path to the image file from the Chrome subfolder: background-image: url('../lwtheme/lightweighttheme-footer-1536x864')
and for #statuspanel-label, use: background: transparent !important;
I still haven't tried out the example in the 2nd link, for add-on buttons.
