Request for "working remotely" status

[AVA]

Currently time can be marked as free, tentative, busy or out of office. I
frequently see the need for a "working remotely" status. This would mean
you're not at your desk but you are working. It would be great for people who
travel frequently or work at home.

I just use "Busy" for that.

Use tentative and a descriptive keyword or phrase to prefix the subject. Ie
"Working from home" - if available for calls, Use "Available for Calls" and
set it as tentative. Tentative allows the appointment to come up in
Free/busy and others will know you are available. If they make appointments
with you, set them as busy so others can't overbook you.
