Feature request: Add option for hidden arrow taskbar tray to behave like in Vista & XP

[Aleksandra0056]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Hello, I have an idea of adding an option for the original arrow taskbar tray to behave like an expandable toolbar instead of a pop-up menu (Like Windows Vista & XP did).

I know this wouldn't be practical, but I have one major reason for implementing this: consistency (e.g. if someone wants to make his/her Windows 11 look like Windows Vista or XP).

Describe the solution you'd like

Implement an option (within Taskbar settings) called "Use original hidden taskbar tray behaviour".

Area of issue

Taskbar

Here is a screenshot:

NOTE: I'm apologising, that I didn't find a suitable screenshot of Windows XP or Vista with good quality and full taskbar view, so I posted an art screenshot instead.
