#1137: Un-nerf status selector

When creating a saved status, the user can choose to "use a different
status for some accounts", but when setting status on the fly, where this
ability is more likely to be useful, no such option exists.
Suggestion: introduce a selector using that locked/unlocked "chain" icon
from The GIMP. In locked state, the status selector acts as it does now;
in unlocked state, each account shows a separate status selector, as in
early 2.0 betas (but with the shorter selector and other improvements from
the current code). Perhaps it would also be possible to collapse these
down when done selecting, or to save them as a saved status combination
(eliminating the need for the separate dialog box).
I could write this, but a patch is _not_ included because most likely I'll
be told that you don't want this. But think about it anyway.
