Package: xfce4-panel
Version: 4.2.2-1
Severity: normal


After upgrading to Xfce 4.2, the panel is no longer freely
movable and the user is forced to choose between top, bottom,
left or right. The panel overlaps the taskbar when both
are set to be either at the top or at the bottom. This is
very inconvenient. I'd like have both on the top of the screen,
the panel just below the taskbar. So please consider

a) allowing the panel to be moved freely
b) watching out for the taskbar, when placing the panel

Thanks a lot for maintaining Xfce4 packages.
