[arch-general] Why doesn't plasma-panel show open apps in 2 rows in arch?

[Adriano de Moura]

What I think that the KDE developers intend is to access any plasmoid  
related configuration on the panel by using that plasmoid icon at far  
right. You should first unlock, then click on the plasmoid icon, and then  
be free to rightclick on the taskbar plasmoid. It's certainly inconvenient  
if you are a advanced user, but makes those details get off the way of new  
users...
