No documentation how to access a status bar to add information to it, eg. when creating a new plugin

[ewuski]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am trying to translate this charactercountplugin: https://gist.github.com/ClementParis016/ab06847c41160c22f278e4cabe4a0879 to work with @tinymce/tinymce-react@4.2.0

The main problem atm is to get the status bar to add info to it as per this line in the above example:

var statusbar = editor.theme.panel && editor.theme.panel.find('#statusbar')[0];

The problem is that panel does not exist anymore within editor.theme and there is no documentation on where to find the statusbarelement within tinymce.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to have access to the status bar element within the tinymce editor within a custom plugin to add information to the statusbar.

Describe alternatives you've considered There is no alternative.

@ewuski Thanks for the feature request! We've added it to our backlog and will consider implementing it in the future.

I will close this issue though. This feature request concerns only the main tinymce repo and not the React integration.
