The problem is with finding terminals. I often have over 60 open at once. The task bar or whatever it is called in XFCE stacks the open Konsoles, but the listing of them is probably by the order of which they were opened. I'd rather it was alphabetical, to save time jumping from one system to another. I'm sure others have the same issue. How is it managed? Do you just look up and down the list of Konsoles until you spot the hostname you want to switch to?
The Preferences dialog for xfce4-panel's "Window Buttons" component (which implements the "task bar") has an option for controlling the sorting order, which offers the following options:
Timestamp Group title and timestamp Window title Group title and window title None, allow drag-and-drop(This is on a Debian jessie system; I don't have a wheezy installation handy.)
I believe either the third or fourth option would be the one you want.
