Task Manager Suggestion : show only icons

[Julien Richard-Foy]

Hello,

I think it would be nice if the user could choice to show only tasks icons (no 
window title) in the task manager applet (see the attached screenshot).
The idea is to combine this option with the “group automatically by name” 
option.

I tried to write a patch for that but I'm not sure of what I'm doing, and 
anyway it doesn't work as expected: the size of task items is still too big, 
and the size of the icon too small.

I've just added a showOnlyIcon attribute to the AbstractTaskItem class, which 
controls to show or not the text when the item is painted. And I've modified 
the configuration dialog accordingly.

What do you think about this suggestion?
How am I supposed to do it properly?

Best regards,
Julien
