Well their current statuses are not based so much on their English constitutional status but on identity and recent changes. I think Cornwall has alot more seperateness than the average English county but not as much as Wales. I think it should be seperate like Wales however but union kept.

I can agree with more autonomy, but I think it should be Cornwall County Council (or 'One Cornwall' as they're now calling it) which gets it, not a new assembly. I believe that all Counties in England should get the same devolved powers, not exclusively Cornwall.
I believe all counties should get the powers too. But what reason do you have for not letting Cornwall be like Wales, I can only imagine English nationalism.
