--- Comment #1 from Eric S <subscriber at blackbrook.org> ---
It would be wonderful if there were some way to simply turn off this feature.
This is a new feature that, in my opinion, is really not in any way useful,
even if it worked properly. One only looks at the Task bar if one is about to
use it, and by using it immediately finds out how many windows the icon is
grouping. Knowing ahead of that click is not really of any benefit that I can
see.

I really cannot imagine a case where I would glance at the bar to find out how
many windows an application has open. And if there is such a use case it is
rare enough that it does not warrant having this icon present all the time. So
actually a good fix for this would be to simply remove this feature entirely.
