Jim as usual hits the request, but is the UI best served by adding textual
labeling to the Status bar?
The labeling, especially whe translated, is going to suck up a lot of
horizontal width on the Status bar--which is always space constrained.
The meaning of the current multi-mode selection Icon is functional--but better
is concise. And, we can determine mode with mouse-over tool-tip, or change
with r-mouse context menu.
If we are to make any visual change--we'd be better served with a set of icons
for the modes (but difficult to capture iconography for use on the Status bar
as these are minimal size icons).
All that said, I don't think this is the best way to adjust things.
