wxPython StatusBar Help

You can get inspiration from the following code, but the problem is you 
will have also to draw all the status bar stuff, not only the foreground 
color.
I don't know any other way. However, I'm used to 2.6 and I could miss 
something existing in 2.8 (I think to OnCreateStatusBar which exists and 
don't work in 2.6 and was supposed to work with the next release ; it 
could be a clue).

import wx
class MyStatusBar(wx.StatusBar):
     def __init__(self,*args,**kargs):
         wx.StatusBar.__init__(self,*args,**kargs)
         self.Bind(wx.EVT_PAINT,self.OnPaint)
     def OnPaint(self,event):
         dc = wx.PaintDC(self)
         self.Draw(dc)
     def Draw(self,dc):
         dc.BeginDrawing()
         dc.SetBackground( wx.Brush("White") )
         dc.Clear()
         dc.SetPen(wx.Pen('BLACK'))
         dc.DrawText(self.GetStatusText(),0,0)
         dc.EndDrawing()
if __name__ == "__main__":
     app = wx.PySimpleApp()
     frame= wx.Frame(None,wx.ID_ANY,'test frame')
     statusBar= MyStatusBar(frame,wx.ID_ANY)
     statusBar.SetStatusText("status text..")
     frame.SetStatusBar(statusBar)
     frame.Show(True)
     app.MainLoop()
