Question

Annoyed with KDE 4.13, namely not being able to disable baloo, I'm again looking for alternatives. I'd prefer something lightweight, probably OpenBox, but what I miss most in all the alternatives I have tried out so far is a flexible taskbar panel. The ideal panel for me should

contain at least desktop switcher, window switcher and notification area,
show only windows from current desktop,
display more than one row of icons, both for the window list and the notification area,
have configurable size,
not try to automatically order windows,
allow rearranging windows using drag & drop,
never group windows of the same application,
look pleasing.

Explanation / Answer

I found that with a bit of configuration, xfce-panel satisfies all my needs.

Adding elements works via context menu:
