Let the programs in the taskbar 'blink' when there is an action, like someone talking in gaim or someone highlighting your name in xchat. A similar function like what you have in windows really. It would be a really neat addition :) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Sorry but that's already implemented, it depends on the application to request it... Both the taskbar and the window manager already have this feature.
