Launch Workflow Job - Update Status Message with Workflow Status

Workflow

I'm launching several workflows with the "Launch Workflow" job, and the only status message that is shown on the Jobs Administration page is "Processed ####-####-####-####-####", where the latter part is the Guid of the workflow.


What would be great is to be able to use the "Workflow Set Status" action in your workflow, and then that populate what the status message is on the Job Administration screen. This just makes it really easy to monitor the status of that job when combined with the job notification emails.
