Are there any? I sort of remember there was at least one, but I can't put my
finger on it. Anyway, I was thinking about writing such a tool for myself,
see how it goes. I'd have no problem releasing it, except that I would be
writing it in PHP-GTK. I don't know how many people have PHP support on
their machines, let alone PHP-GTK support.

I can recommend fspanel. I can't remember the URL but you should have no
problem googling it and I think it's on Freshmeat too. It's a very simplistic
taskbar with workspace support (only numbered buttons, no names or pager),
two possible positions (top/bottom) adjustable on the fly via the left
handle, toggle hidden position via the right handle, anti-aliased fonts,
struts support (won't be covered by maximized windows). Last time I checked
it had no skin or theme support, just the default colors.

Handles kwin and metacity perfectly. Blackbox 0.70 less so, but I suspect
Blackbox cvs has a little bit of work left before it is fully standards
compliant and bug free.
