Actually I wanted to add this feature to my present windows branch (non-
compositing) for 4.3. The idea is to move the complete logic into kwin core 
and only use the effect to paint the windows when compositing is active. When 
compositing is not active there will be Plasma task items shown. By moving it 
into the core it would be possible to have arbitrary groups of windows shown.

 But I fear I don't get it done till hard freeze and so it won't make it into 
4.3 :-( Let's try again half a year later.
