Edit time status bar for VIs

[Daklu]

Most modern applications have a status bar at the bottom of the window for quickly finding relevant information.  I'd like to see an edit time status bar on vi windows showing (and possibly setting) relevant information about the vi's properties.  I'm most interested in the properties in the Execution category as there isn't a good way to check that information without opening the properties dialog box.

I think there has been something very similar suggested earlier.

Status Bar for Labview

[Daklu]

Same widget, different information presented.  I'm more interested in information about that vi that will affect how my application performs, such as reentrancy settings, etc., not about whether Labview is compiling, cleaning up the block diagram, or just decided to take a break for a while.  That stuff is usually pretty easy to figure out.

No reason both couldn't be included though.
