"A desktop full of handy widgets to tell you about what's going on in the world and what's going on around your computer. This is Jackfield. Jackfield is an application for the Gnome desktop that plays host to widgets; small applications to do the things you need. It can run widgets from Apple's Dashboard, will eventually be able to run those from Yahoo's Widget Engine, Microsoft's Gadget Sidebar, and Opera Widgets, and you can write your own."

Nothing one line couldn't solve. Gtk has simple functions to do that
void gtk_window_set_skip_taskbar_hint(GtkWindow *window, gboolean setting);
void gtk_window_set_skip_pager_hint(GtkWindow *window,
gboolean setting);
You just have to call it and no more taskbar or pager

As I'm sure this is pure nitpicky-ness, the screenshot provided on the page appears to have like 6 "Jackfield" toplevel windows listed. Ew.
I expect this is a dev-only thing, and the real deal hopefully hides this from the taskbar.
