Comment 39 for bug 498182

There's a question of whether people should be able to decide the
orientation of a panel item on the panel.... vertical applets on horizontal
panels, or horizontal applets on vertical panels.... but that's an argument
to take upstream I think.

The behavior of 99% of applets on a vertical panel is that they rotate to
fit the smaller width. The task list is an exception to that rule (I believe
an unfortunate one), but it's the only one there, afaik.
