There seems to be a little feature upgrade coming to Plasma taskbar, soon. I mean one of those small added (or missing ones that are their with KDE 3.5 kicker) features that makes KDE what it is supposed to be. Hope to see more of these missing features hitting KDE 4.0. What I mean in this case …. well the following:

As Aaron Seigo states in his blog - “the multiple lines of buttons works automatically, of course, with no configuration needed. new lines appear as space becomes over used. it works nicer than what we had in kicker, really, and it’s all still animated and what not. yummy goodness. you may also notice the “only show tasks on the current desktop” option is back …. i’m sure it’s only a matter of time before we end up with task grouping and what not.”

Waiting for the missing …………

Update: Just noticed that this feature is already there in KDE 4.0 for openSUSE 10.3 at least. Also, if I am not mistaken and not getting any illusions, it seems like the plasma bar has also gone little thinner.
