Every placeholder in the Statusbar Template may also specify width, e. g. %3l. Width is the minimum number of characters to be shown. If the value is shorter than width, the result is left-padded with spaces, or right-padded in case of negative width. The value is not truncated even if the result is larger.

Looks ok by quick inspection.

2K display has room for ~300 characters).

Allowed width range is documented.

Is there any chance the patch will eventually be applied? The patch will celebrate a birthday in two weeks...

Well, "somebody" (other than the OP) needs to review and test it, there is no need for that to be someone from the project team who are limited in available time due to "real life". The tester can just post here. This will minimise the time required of the core team, and likely indicates there is interest in the change. To anybody watching the repository, this applies to all PRs.
