I'm against it ;-)

As just explained on IRC, it's not about disabling the status line
at all, but about being able to filter out the status line at the
mp_msg() level. After a discussion with Uoti, we came to the conclusion
that filtering on MSGT_AVSYNC + MSGL_STATUS should be enough to detect
it. Yes, it's brittle, but should work. If you'd think it's a bad
idea, then a new MGST_STAUSLINE should be created.

And btw: -quiet does the same what you want, just better.
