Show number of combined windows like XP
In XP and Vista, the total number of combined windows was shown. Windows 7 Milestone 2 also showed it but it was removed for some reason.

Set Always-On-Top as Jump List Item
add an option to set a window to stay always-on-top into the jump lists (preferably just above the pin/unpin from taskbar item)

Add an option to remove extra spacing from the tray/notification area.
I think it would be a great idea to add an option that removes all of the extra spacing between the icons in the tray/notification area. With the option selected, the amount of spacing in the tray would return to that of the previous versions of Windows.

Add an option to use the old button organization (multirow taskbar)
When we have two or more rows of space in the taskbar, the buttons in the taskbar are not well organized
In WIN XP the taskbar buttons are kept exactly the same size, and this keeps buttons exactly aligned.
In WIN 7 the size buttons are messy when we have more rows in taskbar and lots of windows opened

Prevent right-click from bringing window into focus when Standard window menu is selected.
I'd find it very convenient if I could go back to the standard window menu but still be able to right-click a taskbar button and close it without the window coming into focus. Thank you for creating such a useful program :)

Improve vertical taskbar
I like my taskbar vertical. In previous versions of windows, when there was too many buttons to display, it would put them into two (or more) columns. In windows 7, it instead creates a horrible scrollbar which you must use to switch between views.
Could the old multiple-column layout be restored?57 votes -

Switch Pinned and Recent on Explorer jumplist
So mouse is closer to pinned items rather than recent items.

disable jump list
When you click on a taskbar button for an open program and move your mouse upwards, it pops up the jump list. It would be great to have an option to disable this feature, as there is no built-in to Windows option to do it.

choosing taskbar color
choosing taskbar band color and taskbar icon box color separately
There are some tries at getting this done, but available programs don't really work well. Such a software will really be a hit since this is arguably the most common complaint about W7.36 votes -

Minimize by dragging middle button
This, currently, is redundant with left button dragging; brings up a jump list.
It would be more useful to have it minimize a window/grouped-windows.29 votes -

Add double click / long click options
I like to middle click icons to close the window. It makes the taskbar behave more like the tabs I'm using in my browser.
But I hat to miss the 'create new instance' option.
Please add more click options and make them user configurable. For instance:
Double left click -> Open new window
Long right click -> Open window menu
etc.18 votes -
invert the taskbar when on the side of the screen, so the orb is on the bottom not the top
When placing the taskbar on either side of the screen, I would like the start orb to be at the bottom. Windows 7 always places it at the top and there is no option to change it. Please add an invert taskbar option to flip the taskbar so the orb is at the bottom.

Change AppIDs Permanently
Some programs (jDownloader, µTorrent) have randomly generated IDs.
If 7TT taskbar inspector could always assign a specific ID when apps like these are launched, then their always/never group/label settings wouldn't be forgotten between instances.
