If we did this, then there would be no way to access the configure menu item when the Task Manager is full, unless you deliberately go to Panel Edit mode. It's already a challenge to get people to realize that widgets are configurable, and I fear that this would only worsen the situation. I do hear your criticism though, and I think it might make sense to hide it a bit more in a sub-menu with the Alternatives... item. I can look into that. It cannot be configured via runner, but it can be configured when in "configure panel" mode - even when the task bar is full. This seems cumbersome, but this is _only_ needed in the case you want to configure the task bar when it is full. IMHO justified... Git commit 1daf42d9d734f969c31016825d8a7a93a6f95fbb by Nate Graham.

[Task Manager] Reorganize and improve presentation of context menu Summary: This patch improves the UX of the Task Manager's context menu by offering more logical separation and grouping of elements, improving strings, and adding or changing icons, as appropriate. The result hopefully feels more harmonious, less confusing, and less intimidating.
