change browser status bar text to link text?

    I’m using an email link in a nav menu and on viewing the page source I see that your plugin is indeed hiding the address.
    However, with all methods (mailto:, a href, shortcode, etc.), the browser status bar text says javascript:; in Firefox and Chrome (no status bar appears in IE at all).

    Is there a way I can make the status bar text match the email link text?

    For example: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Address will appear in your email client.</a>
    (I’m using the custom link in the nav menu, since your plugin overrides my menu link text and css.)

    I want “Address will appear in your email client.” to show on the browser status bar on link hover. Can I do that with this plugin?
