The new version of the tasklist will use the libwnck code, but I'm not
using the WnckTasklist anymore, it comes with too many (small)
problems and the new code allows migrating the iconbox.

I'll use a hidden gtkrc setting for this, new plugins use this more
often for special purpose settings, so user can tweak a bit.
