I posted this message one week ago but did not receive advices. Does  
anybody know an other place where I could ask the question?
    
You'd have to ask the metacity people. But I doubt they will be able to
help you (short of implementing what you need which I don't think they
will do).

  
Or is it  incorrectly framed?
    
No, but I think your best bet is to switch your window manager which you
ruled out in your first post. And then I don't know of a window manager
that satisfies your point 1 (re-arranging of windows on taskbar). I only
remember some freeware for Windows that allowed that. I would still use
it at work if it didn't make explorer.exe crash. :)

But while I like the idea when running Windows, I absolutely have no
need to re-arrange taskbar entries when running Linux. I guess the
reason is that every window manager for Linux has virtual desktops (and
maybe that I have more open windows at work). :)

Mh, that's an interesting commentary. Maybe I should change the way I manage my windows and desktops. It is very surprising IMHO that I am the only one who wants to do that.

Or I'll post on some gnome / metacity list to see how I can implement this myself...
