This is currently not possible due to two facts:

1) The text is rendered by a delegate, to put it simply, delegate only paints
stuff, it is _not_ able to provide an interactivity which you get from widgets.
This may be possible to overcome by creating a QLabel with the status message,
making the link clickable there and then paint that label using delegate, but I
think this would paint it as a pixmap, therefore - not clickable.

2) The status currently hides when you do mouseover and it shows the overlay
buttons. So there's no way you could click it anyway. 

Since the link can be at the very end of a very long status, which would get
trimmed in the window anyway, it makes sense to make the links clickable in the
contact's tooltip. 

I'm CC'ing Keith Rusler as he works on the tooltips.
