It was working fine before. What's the point of removing something useful and that works?

Once activated, the /status panel keeps displaying the context window at all times for new and existing threads, not just on demand.

I activate it by typing /status and then selecting the Status Toggle Context Usage overlay popup.

Once it's activated, it stays on all the time for the current and future threads:
