Be able to remove status history on an idea
Sometimes the status of an idea changes. For example, the PM team might have started work on a new feature, but then put it back in the backlog and the status is changed from "started" to "planned."
Since users can review the history of an idea on the web portal it could look to them like the product is going backwards and erode confidence.
Admins would like the ability to remove the status history from being accessible users or erase a previous status.
(Note: on the latest version of UserVoice you can edit the status message, but you can't edit or remove the actual status)

I agree - sometimes after doing a status update and getting customer feedback, we edit the original posting of the idea making the status update unecessary, redundant. It would be good to be able to completely delete/remove a status update if necessary.
Another example is onetime I accidentally chose the wrong status because I fat fingered it. I had to do another status update to choose the correct status, but I could remove/hide the accidental status update.
