How does this plugin work?
As there is no core hook to add new items to the status dropdown in posts and in the quick edit view, js is required to achieve this. It is definently the most dirty way, but WP Core does not provide other ways to do it.
There is an open trac ticket fo this circumstance: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12706
What happens when I delete the plugin?
Since all custom statuses would no longer be available, deleting the plugin will reset all posts, pages etc. with an custom status to the draft status. This step cannot be undone by reinstalling the plugin! However, the plugin can be deactivated without any problems (see “What happens when I delete a status or deactivate the plugin?”).
