-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 When a developer register a custom post status with {{{
 register_post_status() }}} The post status is not added to the visual
 parts of a post this means you can not set the post to this new status
 after register the new post status.

 There have been several workarounds to this adding functions to get them
 visible but with recent WP versions this seems to have stopped working.

 Another feature to add is regarding the {{{ get_post_statuses() }}} and
 {{{ get_page_statuses()}}} only returns a static array instead of checking
 the available post statues. There should also be a filter on this function
 to Add The correct label for your custom post status.


 Things to improve:
 - Expand get_post_statuses() and get_page_statuses() to actually return
 the registered statuses. Add a filter to be able to label your custom post
 status correctly.
 - When custom post status is added it should also be available:
   •  In the post list overview the post status if not published should be
 in the name like (draft etc)
   • When quick editing / bulk editing the options of all post status types
 should be available.
   • When editing a post the post status should be available in the right
 settings column this should also work with the classic- and Gutenberg-
 mode.
