I'm not sure I would find all of this terribly useful, but it does remind me of a little addition I made to my status script - the time in UTC as well as local time. If you use a system where you are easily able to add arbitrary text to your status bar, I highly recommend this addition. If you do not use such a system, I highly recommend a change ;)

Anyone wanting to do something like you describe in the menubar should check out Hammerspoon. Brilliant stuff.

I am decidedly not a Mac person, but hammerspoon is one of my favorite pieces of software in any category.

For people who don't know, it is a service you run on a Mac that has all of Cocoa bound to Lua. You can script aaaaaaanything on your Mac in Lua. Don't like the way Mac does window management? Treat yoself! Want to control anything at all on your Mac with just keystrokes instead of endless pointy clicky? Treat yoself!
