Standardize on "taskbar" rather than "task bar", since that is what
most references seem to use; e.g.

+The \"work area\" is a measure of the \"usable\" display space.
+It may be less than the total screen size, owing to space taken up
+by window manager features (docks, taskbars, etc.). The precise
+details depend on the platform and environment.

+The `source' attribute describes the source from which the information
