>Not that I know of, but Mike Stewart did say something about this "Dig around on the CD or your installation directory. We might have shipped source code for the task list (as I'm digging through the current build tree, it doesn't look like it). Should be a doddle to make a dockable window from there." so maybe.

Yes, but that was based on your idea of basing it on a toolbar. Creating a dockable form would have to rely on features already available in 6.0. There's nothing that I know of that's new in 7.0 that allows the creation of dockable forms.
