I think this discussion is great!
Could someone (C R?) present a graphical explanation (preferably drawn in Inkscape!) of what changes you suggest, from a UX perspective?
What is the _smallest_ change that would improve situation? What is the _ideal_ change to improve situation?
Just a small nuggest of understanding to add to this discussino: From a purely user mindset, the concept of "current style" and the concept of "the style of the selected entities" is very different. So the UX should indicate this difference clearly. Re-using widgets/UIs is not a good idea, if any of the devs thinks that is "smart".
Maybe two different images for those two?
Just trying to make this happen, and it won't happen if you do not get buy in from some developer that has the time and energy to make this happen...

I think hiding the status bar is a UX corner case, as it takes up almost no screen real-estate... though we could move the current status widget to the toolbox automatically if the status bar is hidden.

So after playing a bit more with the upper-right colour/stroke widget,

I can see two options for UX improvement: 2. Remove it entirely, and have the Lower Left widget replace it, since they both show the same thing unless something else is highlighted
I don't think this is a good idea since it means it won't be displayed if the Statusbar is hidden. Anything that affects tools behaviour should be in the Tool Controls Bar in my opinion.
