Uh oh!

It would be useful to have an option to customize or disable the automatic status text shown below Home Assistant Action nodes.
For example, after calling calendar.get_events, the node currently displays something like:
calendar.get_events called at: Aug 31, 17:45
In larger Node-RED flows this text can become quite long and doesn't always provide useful information at a glance.
It would be helpful to have one or both of these options:
This would make flows cleaner and allow the status below a node to communicate information that is more relevant to the user.
Ideally this could be a general option for Home Assistant Action nodes rather than something specific to calendar.get_events.
The screenshot below shows the issue clearly: the automatically generated status extends far beyond the Action node and underneath adjacent nodes, while a short custom status would keep the flow much easier to read.
