It seems that it is currently impossible to include ESC in
status_format, at least when entered from the : prompt. It just shows
"^[" in the status line. Not being able to edit settings from within
mutt would be bad. Depending on how much of the status_format code had
to be changed, I still think that part of that should go into mutt
itself and not entirely moved to a sh script. Will look into the code
after the weekend.
