status: remove HTTP status info for now

This breaks if, like me, you're using a proxy (or browser) which doesn't
support persitent connections, since you just get a constant reloading
of the UI! Will have to re-think, since ultimately what I really want is
to know user auth's within the UI, so possibly that will be easier when
we do away with HTTP Basic Auth, but also probably require restructuring
of this code.
webui: some changes to default display for UI

This is based on feedback from linuxstb, I'm not 100% convinced about all
aspects. But will throw it out there and see what others think of the change.
