taskbar entry

desktop dashboard creates entry named Desktop
Comment 1 Marco Martin 2014-03-31 14:26:12 UTC 
intended.
I'ts possible to bring the dashboard anywhere in the z order, to be able to easily drag and drop stuff to and from the desktop

That was not there in Plasma 1 world? No?

Seems like being able to minimize the dashboard breaks the desktop wallpaper, I for one get a black background.

Steps to do that :
1) Switch to any application
2) Trigger dashboard
3) Minimize dashboard entry in taskbar
4) Switch to the desktop

To me it doesn't make sense to have this as a entry in the task bar to be honest.

I also can't close the dashboard if I trigger the expose effect from kwin and hit the 'X' on the window preview.

Pushed by mart into branch 'master'.

don't show dashboard in task manager

since people find it too weird, hide dashboard from task manager
*but* it's going to stay under the panel, and windows are still
going to be capable to cover it
