| * The use of vertically oriented panels is very limited due to the fact that neither panel nor most of applets really assume the "vertical" sort of appearance. And, given that most of LCD monitors come in 16:9 form factor, "side-wise" alignments become handy. | * The use of vertically oriented panels is very limited due to the fact that neither panel nor most of applets really assume the "vertical" sort of appearance.

| - | * +1 this. Fonts for panel items should stay horizontal; xfce4-weather-plugin, for example, remains vertical but Orage Panel Clock stays horizontal as it should. The only example I can think of is how Windows handles the Taskbar when in vertical mode and the improvements it's progressively made from XP-Vista-W7... it works progressively better in each version. | + | * +1 this.

| * Wishful thinking: The xfce desktop supports only "Create a launcher" kind of element on the desktop. If the "panels" are allowed to be, 1stly, covered by windows, 2ndly, have transparent decorations and 3rd, more correct and explicit size limitations, that would probably make an easy way to mimic the "KDE Plasma" and Windoze 7 sort of behavior? Please consider those options. Thanks :) | * Wishful thinking: The xfce desktop supports only "Create a launcher" kind of element on the desktop.

| * Key binding for fvwm/metacity style 'raiselower' function. (I've been trying to live with separate raise and lower keys and it really slows me down compared to the 'raise if below, else lower' single key that lets you cycle through your stacked windows.) | * Key binding for fvwm/metacity style 'raiselower' function.

| * Key binding for moving a window to different heads (=monitors) on one workspace pretty much as it can be moved over different workspaces (left, right, up, down ...). Maybe one could introduce an option at the same time such that the user can decide what happens when he triggers the move of a window on the leftmost monitor to the left: it could be moved to the rightmost monitor either on the current workspace or on the workspace left to the current workspace. | * Key binding for moving a window to different heads (=monitors) on one workspace pretty much as it can be moved over different workspaces (left, right, up, down ...).
