Well I could easily create a script to set the status to Idle when you lock your computer. That is simple.

Something like this could work (untested by the way):
Javascript code:
var bIsDesktopLocked;
var nPreStatus = 0;
 
function OnEvent_Initialize() {
    if (Messenger.MyStatus < STATUS_INVISIBLE) return false;
   
    MsgPlus.AddTimer('isDesktopLocked()', 100);
}
 
function OnEvent_SigninReady() {
    OnEvent_Initialize();
}
 
function OnEvent_Timer(sTimerId) {
    var b = isDesktopLocked();
    var n = Messenger.MyStatus;
    if(b !== bIsDesktopLocked) {
        if(Messenger.MyStatus !== STATUS_IDLE &&
           Messenger.MyStatus !== nPreStatus) {
            Messenger.MyStatus = (b ? STATUS_IDLE : nPreStatus);
            nPreStatus = n;
        }
    }
    MsgPlus.AddTimer(sTimerId, 100);
}
 
function isDesktopLocked() {
    var DESKTOP_SWITCHDESKTOP = 0x100;
   
    var p_lngHwnd = Interop.Call('user32', 'OpenDesktopW', 'Default', 0, false, DESKTOP_SWITCHDESKTOP);
    if(p_lngHwnd !== 0)
        var p_lngRtn = Interop.Call('user32', 'SwitchDesktop', p_lngHwnd);
   
    Interop.Call('user32', 'CloseDesktop', p_lngHwnd);
    return p_lngRtn === 0;
}



Thanks! Exactly best of what I wanted! :D

There is a line that I can change if I choose to set as BUSY instead of AWAY? :D
Well currently it would set you to idle if you lock your computer. You can change both the STATUS_IDLE with any of the following
