I don't think that the tool status always being visible is mandatory. IMO it would be sufficient to be able to replace messages. Tools will set the statusbar every so often anyway. At this point we are not seeking for a perfect solution but for a quick fix for 2.0. The proposal that needs the smallest amount of changes should definitely be favored at this point. Sven
