   * Pleeeeeeeease bring back the rows option that was definitely in 4.6.1. In 4.10 I cannot make icons small AND use the all the space available in the notif area: I have a 22 pixel bar but icons can only go down to 12 pixels... not that with a 24 pixel bar (or any size) the rows come back (even 24px is far too big - vertical space is at a premium since the fashion and cheapness/profitability of wide-screens, so even 2px more is massively wasteful).   * Pleeeeeeeease bring back the rows option that was definitely in 4.6.1.

 +  * A user-customizable slider toggle. Made so it runs a command when turned on, and another when turned off. This would be extremely useful for developers using VMs or containers. And for web developers or service providers with loads of projects. To enable and disable virtual hosts. Even for sysadmins who want to stop/start/enable/disable things like tasks/daemons/services. enabling/disabling ssh tunnels/vpn connections/firewall exceptions. The possibilities are endless. stdout/stderr could optionally be shown as notifications.
