I don't doubt that, but I wasn't asking for a format-line variable. (That
would be pointless; I can't imagine anyone seriously wanting to disable any
of the information already shown, and there's no easily available extra data
except for the moderation status.) I just want a simple boolean variable
that chooses between "show moderation status" and "don't show moderation
status".
