The idea is this: 1/ you define your class that holds the status property. You don't need to create template for it or class sheet 2/ in the document information panel, you write a little piece of velocity to get the status object from the current document and allow you to edit it (look at the tutorial for creating a simple application, you should have there code samples about how to get an object of a specific type from a document) 3/ you need a way to make sure that every document that you create has one object of type status in it. For this, for example, you can a) in the code that displays the status (I assume you display it somewhere, right?) if the current document does not have a status object, create one and save the document b) create a template "status document" using the templates mechanism (see the template administration section) and then create new documents with that template That's how I would do it, and I can't see a reason why it won't work, if I understood correctly your requirements.
