Current User Status Module

Create a Drupal module in either Drupal 6 or 7 to fulfil the following criteria. 

1. We wish to display a simple status on a User's profile page. For example "John Appleseed is currently [STATUS]" or "John Appleseed is currently not [STATUS]". [STATUS] could be replaced by something like "in the office" or "listening to music". This setting should be an on/off toggle switch.
2. The status will need to be a configurable value from its own settings page. Once the status value is set for the site, it should not need to be changed. This could take the form of a drop down menu or radio buttons with pre-configured values or a text box with one value.
3. There should be access restrictions in place to control who is allowed to change this setting.
4. The User Profile page also needs a restriction in place to who can alter the user's status.
5. The complete history of a user's status should be stored in its own database table along with a time reference.
6. A block should be available to show the current user's recent statuses along with the time. The block should show no more than 10 results.

Bonus points

1. Build an AJAX controlled block for toggling a user status so the user does not need to go to their profile page.
2. Use the Views module to create the recent status block.
3. Create a cron task to purge older values from the user status database table.
