This is a result of the goofy way that status (or other) values are handled in the ITSM apps. In addition to adding your entry, you also need to update the CTM:CFG-ApplicationPreferences form, and modify the attributes on the appropriate hidden "status" fields to also add your new search name and selection id. Since you are adding a change-related search you need to update field 1000001740 - Infrastructure Change Status, though if you look closely ALL those status fields have entries for all other field's searches.
They could easily have made this completely data-driven, but there are still these lingering hidden fields. Sigh.
