Description Harold Aling 2006-10-16 12:13:54 CEST
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20060601 BonEcho/2.0 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Build Identifier: 

New application get weird locations on the taskbar. Sometimes the newly created app even becomes the first item on the list...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Firefox on an empty workspace
2. Open xterm
3. Open another xterm

Actual Results:  
Taskbar items: [xterm][firefox][xterm]

Expected Results:  
[firefox][xterm][xterm]

Add new items at the end of the taskbar.

Some additional feature requests:
+ Add a drag and drop feature to the items in the taskbar for easy reordening (like firefox 1.5+)
+ Place multiple instances of the same app side-by-side

I recently followed the 'new approach to the taskbar'/taskbar rewrite discussion, so you may close this bug if you'd like...

I'll just wait wor the next, cool, full featured taskbar version!

Libwnck already improves this behaviour. Closing it.
