Yes I can work, but then if you change the styling of the status field you will break the form rule.  I prefer to have a cleaner status field and then have a formula which display it in a fancier way.  for example if you want to filter a report for a certain status or to have Dynamic Filters on a report, then only having a Rich text status field is very messy.  They really will not work for a DF, for example as all that code will be exposed to the user.
