Yeah, I wouldn't trust me neither :)

OK here you go: patch included.
There were quite some conflicts due to the latest changes to taskbar and 
taskmanager which lead to some ugly manual merging.
I couldn't test the result here on my notebook (I don't have internet on my 
desktop computer which is the only one to support the COMPOSITE extension), 
so I only checked that it compiles and hope that it still does what it's 
supposed to do :(
_tasks is now a QValueList and I just replaced a containsRef( taskpointer ) 
call with a find( taskpointer ). Not sure if this is ok. I'll compile it all 
again at home and will test it, so if it doesn't work you'll get another 
patch tomorrow.

Enable the effect in the configure taskbar dlg via "Enable exposite effects".
You'll get the best result with kompmgr running and transparency 
fadein/fadeout disabled imo.

Technically: I call XFlush() and XSync() very often and am not sure if it's 
needed but it seemed to me as if it provided the best output.

Btw: I have to change the name to something better than exposite (which comes 
from the opposit of Exposé and that makes it even more stupid... whatever)
