Comment (by MarkDoliner):

 We currently use both the usage count and the last-used timestamp.  From
 the comments on saved_statuses_sort_func() in libpurple/savedstatuses.c:

 "A magic number is calculated for each status, and then the statuses are
 ordered by the magic number.  The magic number is the date the status was
 last used offset by one day for each time the status has been used (but
 only by 10 days at the most).

 The goal is to have recently used statuses at the top of the list, but to
 also keep frequently used statuses near the top."

 I'd rather not have a hidden preference for this.  I'd be ok with changing
 the number from 6 to something else, but I think 6 is the ideal number for
 most people.
