Xfce Panel 4.16 Roadmap
General
Add dark theme switch in Appearance tab: DONE
Auto-hide animation (fade-out or move-out): DONE
Drop support for Gtk2 plugins and drop all related code: DONE
Fix border drawing to not only draw one outer border, but panels with <100% width should also have a left and right border: DONE
Switch to xfce_gtk_image_menu_item (libxfce4ui 4.15.2)
libxfce4panel
StatusNotifier
Launcher
Workspace Switcher
Improve theming (see grouping indicators for dark/bright bg decisions plus
stackoverflow)
Ensure workspace wrapping when scrolling is the same as general workspace wrapping (possibly offer a setting in the properties dialog) - currently we ignore wnck wrapping
Add more options to workspace cycling (including disabling it, if libwnck allows for that)
Improve settings dialog (only show scrolling options when they apply, i.e. with the buttons): DONE
Add option to show workspace numbering on buttons: DONE
Tasklist
General
Look into getting app icons at different icon sizes (libwnck patch?)
Improve look of minimized windows (no more brackets): DONE
Review and merge “Start new instance” patch: DONE
Grouping
Move grouping options to a separate - dynamically added - tab
Offer more options (hide group indicator, possibly re-add text style)
Add option to keep mouse-wheel cycling within the group (so you switch between the windows of one application only) - or adjust the cycling logic to prioritize groups
