--- Comment #13 from Kåre Särs <kare.sars@iki.fi> ---
The new taskbar (4.10.90) now strictly follows the margins of the themes. Most
themes set quite big margins, which does not work very well if you want a
compact taskbar. There simply is no space left for the text. 

Plateau is a theme that has small margins around the task items. You can use
just the "Task items" from Plateau if you use the Customized setting.

I see three solutions to the problem:
1) We ask the users to use themes with less margin.
2) We go back to removing margins in stead of text and icon when the space is
scarce. This has the drawback that it destroys the visual design and
potentially makes it look ugly.
3) We add a compact task item to the theme standard

I prefer solution 2  ;)  A patch for that is attached to bug 321847
