Description
### Description of the new feature / enhancement
this extension should've been a secondary taskbar for managing active windows (implementation should be like virtual desktop extension, but for replicating taskbar task-list)
### Scenario when this would be used?
this extension should've been a secondary taskbar for managing active windows because this is useful when taskbar is broken, like sometimes my explorer is in a crash loop because of an app and this extension can be a secondary taskbar
