I actually want to change the status of a topic maybe one time out of every 15 that I open it in OxygenXML, and yet I have to wait for and respond to the Status dialog every single time I open and close the topic. How about giving me a setting where I can just say "leave the status as it is" by default, skip the dialog box which is useful maybe 6.7% of the time, and let me change status from the Publication manager when I want to change status?

I'm sure this pop up looked good during product planning, and is likely not nearly as irritating when working with a schema that fragments content less than DITA, but when authoring in DITA it's basically a message direct from Trdion Docs to the author that the author's time is of no value at all as far as Tridion Docs is concerned.
