Windows 7 In-task bar menu!
My Songbird is constantly open, and it will be amazingly comfortable to control it throe the said task bar, and probably not much of a programing challenge.

holy crap.. i think thats more exciting than the "toolbars"... cause your still able to minimize and maximize it quickly.. but just hover over to change it....
ooo im all tingly inside... Thanks GeekShadow! hopefully it works out ;)

I'm working on it, what do you think ? I will try to replace each little Songbird icons with other icons ;)

that sounds awesome! Maybe add options to add/remove controls... i would probably only use play, pause, and next...

Looks good, I'd probably change a few things though, and rearrange it like:
[frequent items]
Keep them as is...
[Tasks]
- Stop/Play (change the name and icon dynamically to match the behavior)
- Next Track
- Previous Track
- Switch to MiniPlayer / Switch to Full Player (change dynamically).
Changing the volume from the Jump menu probably wouldn't work too well. Can hardly wait. Now if only they'd fix the problem with songs getting clipped near the end...

I would really like the ability to rate a track directly from this menu. Often I listen to a new album and add ratings while I'm doing something else, so it's nice to keep these interruptions as effortless as possible.

You could check out the Windows API Code pack
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Window...
This is mostly for managed code (C# or VB), however the source is available and it might provide some insight as to how to add buttons to the thumbnail preview etc (about two lines in C#).
I'm not sure how to do aero snap with non-native windows such as songbird's, or even if it is possible through an addon (I am not a C++ or XUL developer - though i have seen something similar put together for something else), however this would certainly be nice!
I'd also like to put in a request for the ability to watch a windows 7 library (I saw this in a different thread, but just to make sure we get it!). I believe this is also capable through the windows API code pack.
Of course, everybody is going to have their own opinion about the integration with windows 7, and I wish all those involved the best of luck with keeping everybody happy!

iTunes can have it, Winamp can have it, WMP has it
Could Songbird also get Jump List support for Windows 7?
