  Target Milestone: 1.0

Please consider adding an option for dynamic resizing of window previews in the
Task Manager when multiple windows are open for a single application (similar
to Windows OS behavior).

Currently, previews use a fixed thumbnail size, which causes the preview popup
to expand dramatically and overflow off the screen or trigger an inconvenient
scrollbar when many windows/tabs are open.

Proposed implementation details:

Dynamically scale down preview thumbnails based on the number of open windows
and available screen width (Screen.width).

Switch to a compact list or scrollable view only after reaching a minimum
thumbnail width limit.

Note: A community member has already shared a basic QML logic/proposal for this
in the KDE Discuss forum thread:
