vimperator autohide statusline

Question

Most of the time the Vimperator Statusline just sits there taking up space. Is there any way to autohide it so it only shows when I'm using it?

That works, except the messages. E.g. if I make :hist status the bottom bar disappears and I can't see the history. – Lindesnes
