Hi, Mastacheata
Quick response first. NAS Herder does not appear in task bar but it should show an icon in nortification area (task tray) of task bar. You can pin the icon there by customizing its behavier as "Show icon and nortifications". This way, NAS Herder will be always accessible by nominal number of clicking. I think, this task tray icon will accommodate most of your concern.
When NAS Herder's window is hidden by other windows, double-clicking its task tray icon will make its window top of the desktop.
Second, Windows 7's jump list. Hmm... will there be good improvement of usability by addying jump list compared to context menu from the task tray icon? What's the merit? How to differentiate functions? Do you have any suggestion?
