It is not needed. Status line redraw is being triggered by closing the
window, no redraw is the problem of the custom status line, not Vim.
RefreshStatusLines function is thus obviously *not* being used from
the &statusline in this case.

I know this because powerline does *not* use anything, but "switch
highlight group" and "display raw text" statusline segments and it
still immediately occupies all space after closing the window (== it
does not use %= segments, so to occupy all space Vim must recompute
status line or it will be displayed using the previous window size).
