as i've said on irc previously, while i respect your choice to work on this, i think it's completely unnecessary and a poor direction. i really don't want to spend one of our SoC slots on such a thing. it is fun to work on something new. and, of course, we all get to choose what we work on. this is what helps make f/oss development fun and interesting. but none of the features you listed are actually unique to docks outside of mixing launchers with windows, and a new library is not required to achieve that. other things like "merging system tray windows with task entries") or qtscript for grouping strategies[1] could (and should) be added to libtaskmanager where they would benefit all task managers. [1] though that sounds like completely overkill tbh; are there really that many different strategies, or that well end being added at runtime?. -- Aaron J.
