Hello

At the first, I wanted offer a vision of the dock.

Here are some points:
  * I think it would be nice to dock in a thin line at the bottom of 
the screen with colorful application indicators. The colors are taken 
from the application icons, as in the unity panel.

Of course, we must do in the settings to disable this "compact" mode. 
Then fill the background panel and application indicators will be padded 
to an icon.

  * Active applications is marked by an arrow pointing down. Arrow 
color is taken from the color of the application (the lower part)

  * Indicator color of urgent window brightens and lights. Similar can 
be seen in the unity panel.

  * When you move the pointer down the screen, with some force 
(depending on configuration), then swim application icons, with animation.

  * Color of the panel is the same, what is the background color, which 
displays the desktop.

At the second, I wanted to say - can be implemented dock as part of the 
gala or wing-panel?

PS
I'm not a designer, so it could look ugly.
