I don't think it's possible, nor is it a good thing to do anyway.

For status information, display it visually with your dock icon. Adium is a good example of how this can work well.

Anybody know if it's possible to change the app name shown when you mouse
over an application's icon in the dock? I would like to change this
periodically when the app is running, to add brief status info along with
the app name.

thanks,
Craig
