= Taskbar Applets =

Taskbar applets appear in the right half of the Opie taskbar. They are always visible hence they provide a quick means to change settings no matter what application is currently running. They can also be used for ubiquitous status information like the battery status, infrared or bluetooth neighbourhood.

(FIXME: Add picture)

If there are customizable settings or tasks the user can accomplish by touching the applet, then the applet should open up a popup-menu on left-click. It is valid to immediately change a setting on right-click. The battery applet uses this to switch between percentage and icon display style.
