Bug Description
Chatted about this with kirkland at UDS during closing announcements.
With new byobu using tmux which only has one status line, it would be nice if we could configure multiple status lines and switch between them with a hot key. Perhaps have one status line for system monitoring (cpu/memory/net traffic etc) and another for more static info like version of Ubuntu and IP address.

I like this idea! Basically, I'll bind a hot key (maybe ctrl/alt/shift and F5 or F7) and allow you to cycle through multiple different status lines.
