It's a 4 year old existing problem that never really got fixed and probably won't be any time soon.

This is a known issue when trying to edit the status update through the overlay displayed when accessing it from the recent status update feed on the homepage. As a workaround you can scroll through the status update to edit it from the status update direct link or from your profile or activity page.

Status updates have been deprecated by the forum software provider so it's unlikely we'll get a fix for it.

You're not kidding. What an odd decision by Invision.

We don't have any plans of it that I am aware of given how much they get used within the community.

Not to my knowledge, however, status updates may disappear if / when the forum is upgraded.

Where else will be spam accessible fluff that's one click away?

We'll have to create a new subforum when the day comes.
