Yes, right not it does not evaluate the script output recursively. The {{green}} and other color tags are parsed by the renderer, so that's why you can have {{green}} in the script output and still work correctly.

It's in the ContextKit property "Presence.State". You can use the ContextKit packages found here: http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/pool/.../c/contextkit/

Seems like there also is a python-contextkit package - that might be helpful if you are doing Python scripts. For shell scripts, "context-ls" from contextkit-utils might do the trick.
