I'm trying to migrate OmniWeb from WebView to WKWebView. The older WebUIDelegate protocol had a method for setting the status text, but there seems to be no equivalent API in WebKit 2. (In fact, it seems the only reference to a status bar at all is in WKWindowFeatures, where WebKit can tell its WKUIDelegate whether the new window it's requesting should have a status bar or not. When browsing the web, it's important to me to be able to know what some links are going to do before I click on them. In previous versions of OmniWeb--and in Safari today--I would do this by turning on the Status Bar and hovering over the link.)
