 It would be nice if the AMM multi-monitor taskbar supported multi-monitor applications when NOT using the 'Mirror primary taskbar' feature.

Here is a scenario where it would be useful:
- I have the Visual Studio 2010 icon pinned to my primary taskbar.
- If Visual Studio 2010 is launched and I select a window on a secondary monitor, the Visual Studio 2010 icon appears on the second monitor; however the icon on the primary monitor becomes inactive.
- I usually click the program icon to minimize/restore applications.  If I click that 'inactive' icon on the primary monitor, a second instance of Visual Studio 2010 is launched by accident.

- AMM should show the icon as available and active on all monitors that have windows hosted by the multi-monitor application (not just the window that has an active window) to prevent scenarios such as this.

Otherwise, this is an excellent product.

 Thank you for implementing this request.  Even though the separate icons aren't shown on each taskbar, not having the main icon disappear makes it much better.
