I agree.

One thought that came to my mind is that perhaps leaving a more
detailed explanation along with the status change would help clarify
the meaning of the status. I just don't see how a couple words can
accurately define the status to all readers. The biggest issue is
getting people to understand what the status fields mean. Many people
have people seem to have problems with statuses. Maybe on the Malone
main page some descriptions could be added, just to help out. Just a
thought.
