Status bar - messages and new panels

I think this has been mentioned before but I couldn't find anything in the
archives at all, just references to issues being fixed relating to it but
no info.

1. How does one send a message into the status bar?

2. Is it possible for a plugin to add a new component to the status bar to
display it JLabel of its current state?

Thanks
Mark

in case someone else also wonders (i did) how to unset the custom info again:

WindowManager.getInstance().getStatusBar(project).setInfo(null);

if ( idea 4.0+ ) {
WindowManager.getInstance().getStatusBar(project).setInfo(
"your message"
);
}

Excellent - is it possible for a plugin to add a JLabel/panel into the
status bar at all?
