Proposed change to KDE4 vertical taskbar

This is my proposed mockup for a change to the KDE4 vertical taskbar. You can
see that the mockup is similar to the KDE3 implementation. It is cleaner and
easier to find the needed application at a glance. It also takes up less space.


I believe that the KDE3 vertical taskbar retains the same vertical height of
each item as the horizontal taskbar does. In KDE4, the taskbar sets each items'
vertical height to the maximum possible. Please change this so that the
vertical height is fixed (constant) at the same height that it would be had the
taskbar been horizontal.

Thanks. It's amazing watching the Plasma team build this desktop. Kudos to you
guys for all the hard work!
