That is very difficult to do propery and always working in Plus! scripting. It is not something you can do in one line of code. It requires a whole (advanced) script. I doubt somebody would write something like this soonish which does this.

Another way would be to patch Messenger (in memory) so that it uses the status of your choice instead of the "Away/Idle" status when it hits idle mode and the status of your choice when it detects activity again. But this too requires advanced knowledge and advanced scripting. Plus it is highly version dependant. I once wrote such a script for WLM 8.0 for my own private use, but haven't updated it since. So, wasn't impossible back then, but I'm not sure if it would be possible now (Messenger has changed a great deal since then). I also lack the time to make something for the latest versions. Maybe someone else would though.
