That's true, it doesn't.

The Task Manager has code for this but it's specific to the Task Manager. Perhaps it should be genericized so it can be shared among multiple applets.

After consulting with other developers, we concluded that this is too specific, sorry. We aren't able to offer this level of per-widget granularity for Activities.
