Vincent Lefevre sez:
} Is there a way to specify terminal espace sequences in $status_format,
} for instance to write some data to the title or icon string? Of course,
} these characters mustn't be taken into account in right-justifying
} (%>X). In zsh, one can do that with the prompt string, enclosing the
} escape sequence with %{ and %}.

I have, for a longtime, wanted something like that. It might even have been
the reason I joined this mailing list. My understanding, however, is that
curses/slang interferes with doing it directly.

It would be nice, though, to have something like zsh's %{ %} that mutt
would interpret as "just send this to stdout and don't worry about it"
(after, of course, expanding enclosed expressions such as mbox name). Any
developers/hackers (note the crosspost) like the idea? I'll try doing it
myself if I have the time, but that doesn't seem likely.
