actually the mailing list is only for discussion. you will see loads of ideas flying around. But some of them may be very hard or impossible to implement. your suggestions seems practical and dockbarX already has something similar, would be great to see it in unity. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-cbKmMTymZ10/TneWpVhTz3I/AAAAAAAAF_4/Z34C763PuS0/dockbarx_windowlist_theme.png to submit, file a bug report and assign it to ayatana-design. Am quoting Owais's instructions here: >First assign the bug to ayatana-design, this will propagate the message to the design team. Once, they discuss the idea and confirm. They'll mark it as fix-released and then the actual code can land in Unity. Things might be actually bit different but that's how I understand them Good Job and Good Luck! :) -- Owais Lone he...@owaislone.org Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:45:11 -0200 Subject: Re: [Ayatana] List windows on hover From: tal...@gmail.com To: estela...@hotmail.com CC: ayatana@lists.launchpad.net >I wonder what would be the devs opinion about this. will you submit this soon ? Submit where, how? I thought this mailing list was intended for that. By the way, where are patches discussed and approved?

IMHO, there is nothing easier to scan and search than text in a vertical layout. Maybe it would be nice to raise the window when you hover an item in the list, so you get the best of both.

In Unity, changing between the open documents was quite difficult, I had to think to much to find a window and my focus was constantly shifting from the main task. The Launcher is quite agnostic to multiple window applications, so Unity relies to much on the window manager for this. I found it quite inferior to the more traditional task bar for this type of workflow. I've ended up running another task bar(tint2) to get my work done. Did you know that you can use alt+BAT (button above tab) to switch between document windows? It's quite efficient.
