Yep. What you're describing Jaguar, isn't actually saving the statusses. Set your status to busy for example, it wont be saved. This is what only StatusSaver does and is what we understand under saving statusses
And if the "AutoAwayAlways" setting is set to 0 (false) then the "change status after x minutes" feature changes the status only when the user is currently Online or Idle. This is to prevent changing your status after x minutes when you're "busy" or something. This hasn't anything todo with saving the actual statusses.
