I've been on a customer site all week reading through lots of word and
PDF files with OO and evince, with many open at a time. Because of the
titles being very large in most of them,  I ended up extending the width
to 640 to give me more readability.

I can obviously use the Windows menu of openoffice to jump to a file,
but the window list is so much cooler as it can be access on all
desktops. Mine is normally pinned and slid off screen so that when I
hover over it, it slides into view. right now, a large portion of screen
can be taken up when this 640 pixel wide window slides into view.. but
its perfect for navigating the long window titles caused by the docs.

It would be a great feature to add to Wprefs and make it run-time
customisable or at least in the configure options
