Steps to reproduce:

Open the Chat with any account.
Type a custom availability status message (either as Available or Unavailable) via the StatusMessageLabel toolbar entry field.
Open the Tools menu > Chat status > select another status (i.e. either Unavailable or Available).

Actual results:

In the main window, your status is still as you left it before opening the menu.

Expected results:

Changing the status through the menu item should be akin to changing it via the toolbar.
