Description

Had a few requests from customers asking if it's possible to disable the Status Bar on displays.
I had a similar desire during testing and projects, but it was initially decided to not make it optional.

A customer mentions it's for digital signage. Usually it's because they want more usable space (or find it unnecessary).

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named; start by searching the repository for the display Status Bar implementation and reading the linked customer context. Done means displays can optionally omit the Status Bar while preserving the existing behavior by default.
