Windows 7-like Taskbar Option
Summary
In Windows 7, Microsoft listened to average user's feedback to make the OS experience easier and faster to use. From this feedback Windows' biggest improvement is the revamped taskbar. These improvements are the "Jumplist", removal of text information and a small icon and replaced with a big icon that can contain more then one window, and ability to switch around application's positions in the taskbar. I am asking for this in Fedora.
Here is complete explanation of the Windows 7 taskbar (Information in this video ends at 3:25)
This would be just an option, it would not be the default interface

I am not able to implement this feature because my C++ coding skills are weak, but I am learning it on the side of my school work. I do not have anyone in mind to implement this feature but I am sure someone is willing to do this.
Current Status
- Targeted release: Fedora 13
- Last updated: September 26 2009
Detailed Description
See summary
Benefit to Fedora
This feature would give users the ability to use features that were designed to make the OS easier to use and more visually appealing.
Scope
- Jump-List
- Use large icons as Window and application containers
- Switch position of large icon containers
- Window preview by hover of icon container
- Manage windows by hover of icon (ability to close application, for some applications have more options. E.g. pause, resume)
How to Test
Testing cannot be done because there is not an implementation of this feature.
User Experience
Enhanced user experience through a better look, and quick ways to navigate through applications.
Dependencies
None other then the taskbar being exsistant.
Contingency Plan
Probably not on by default. Configurable via "Appearance Preferences".
Documentation
None yet.
