Hide status area in list view

Hi,
I'd like to hide the status area in list view when clicking on the List icon at the top left of a page. I've set the hide status area for Contacts in Admin ->Tabs and Navigation which works for the Tab button, but Lists default to Show status area with the List button. It seems to depend on a variable setting but I can't figure out where to set that.
thanks,
John
