Sorry, not without just using RGtk2 commands. At some time this was possible,
but I changed the behavior so statusbars, menusbars and toolbars are only part
of a toplevel window.

If you want to use RGtk2 commands, it isn't so hard. Here is an example:

library(RGtk2)
library(gWidgets); options(guiToolkit="RGtk2")
w <- gwindow()
g <- ggroup(cont=w, horizontal=FALSE)
g1 <- ggroup(cont=g, horizontal=FALSE)
glabel("one", cont=g1)
sb1 <- gtkStatusbar(); add(g1, sb1)

g2 <- ggroup(cont=g, horizontal=FALSE)
glabel("two", cont=g2)
sb2 <- gtkStatusbar(); add(g2, sb2)


sb1$push(1, "some text")
sb1$push(1, "new text")
sb1$pop(1)


..snip..
