[Panel-devel] task activation frenzy in taskbar

Hi,
i noticed that if i click in the few pixels between a task and another 
suddenly all the existing window are activated in less than a second, it's 
quite frightening :)
it seems this is caused by the following function

void TaskGroupItem::activate()
{
    foreach(TaskEntry entry, _tasks) {
        entry.task->activate();
    }
}

in tasks.cpp
is it needed? if i understood correctly this would be used to bring all the 
windows of the same group to the front when it will support grouping. this 
would be neat, but wouldn't it make sense to not do that in the root group?

Cheers,
Marco Martin
