Hi, I got a very interesting suggestion in private mail today, whoever is currently maintaining the Panel and the Taskbar (Pietro? Matthias? David?) might want to consider implementing it: Let the user define a color for each virtual desktop. Then the buttons in the Taskbar get a background in that color. Thus, you can much more easily see the virtual desktop on which a certain application window is located.
