I think I'm OK with your patch, I just haven't had time to look at it 
yet or test it -- and apparently no one else had either.  While the 
screenshot looks nice, it is unclear what happens to the existing 
issues when status fields are added, removed or renamed.  I have been 
meaning to test this.

With or without these fields, I can usually tell when a patch had a 
_good_ review or when it has been thumbed up with no or minimal 
inspection/testing.
