## Description

### **Steps to reproduce:**

1.  Go to Admin -\> Work Packages -\> Status
2.  Set "New" to read-only
3.  Go to work package list and try to create a "New" work package. This will fail with an error "subject can't be blank".

### **Actual Behavior**

You are allowed to make the standard work package status read-only.

### **Expected Behavior**

The standard status should not be allowed to be made read-only.  
It could be argued that it shouldn't be allowed to be made closed either.
