None, you don't have my permission to do so.

Here's how I do it. I push the taskbar to the right side of the screen, widen it, and begin building multiple toolbars within the taskbar. This way I can clearly see at least 20 programs running, including many, many icons docked in those toolbars.

I can get 34 icons before it scrolls. Using large icons on a 1920x1200 display.
