for the name suggestion, you can use a plugin called "mycustomnix" if u can find a link. The author of the program has taken his link down. (and i think given up on the plug-in)

and as for your status suggestion, i have never seen a plugin that does that, and don't think it can be done

Nope its not possible  you can only have one name for all your contacts

You can't have individual statuses but you could just block him then if he asks why you aren't online you can say you were too busy

You can use StuffPlug-NG (http://www.stuffplug.com/), which has the ability to alter your nickname in chats... so, not in the contactlist, but in chats only. It isn't possible to alter your nickname in the contactlist as well....

Question: do you mean it is impossible to develop such a feature? I understand our colleague JPNARF is telling it as suggestion to be developed as a new feature. If he needs voices to reinforce his suggestion, here is mine. I also would appreciate such a feature.  ;)
