Bug 401991: Option to make status overlays non-clickable, or hide them all
together (interferes with the primary function of the dock)
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=401991



--- Description ---
Created attachment 116853
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=116853&action=edit
chrome with clickable mute overlay.

I keep clicking on the mute/sound status overlays in the icons when I am trying
to select a window from the dock. Most of these clickable overlays are pretty
useless (does one really need to toggle volume from the dock for each specific
app? The dock isn't an audio mixer).


I think default behavior should be to hide these overlays or make them
non-clickable. Or at least make this an option.

Let me know if this should be filed upstream instead.
