Re: Before anyone asks for screenshots of the Flam

"Real time previews of the windows in the panel and task switcher is useful for seeing what window 'Konqueror <14>' is."

Not really. Previews are small enough that most app windows all look like white backgrounds with vague dashes of black text. Some konqueror windows will be at a site with a different colored background, so that helps. Multiple windows at one site won't, of course.

The whole preview thing turned out to be less than useful for me with Beryl. Windows with the same toolkit/style often end up looking too much alike from a distance. Differentiating by icons still wins IMHO.
