I'm thinking about starting a taskbar module, and would like a few comments on what people want to see. Basic ideas so far:

One taskbar per zone (like the pager).

The taskbar will be a main edje file that swallows an container, either
   A) an e_table, to allow multiple rows of tasks OR
B) an e_box that does pans its contents like the ibar does. (turn off auto fit, and shrink it to see what i'm talking about).
We could always do both formats and make it an option. (wrap vs. pan).

Each task would be another edje, swallowing in the icon, app name and window title (and possibly other info from the eapp?)

Tasks with a common eapp could be grouped, with a popup to select borders within that app.

Optionally display tasks only for current desktop/zone or all desktops/zones

State of the border should of course be indicated in the taskbar item (greyed out if iconified, blinking red if hung, flashing in some other way if the window needs your attention, etc).

I'm sure i've missed a few things, so what do ya'll want to see in a taskbar?
