Could you please add multi-line support for task panel?

added in SVN. 
according to task's vertical padding and size of font, tint2 will used 
multi-line
when possible.

An option to forcibly turn this behavior off is also needed, I guess.

Thank you but this is not what I actually meant. I wanted *task buttons* to be 
placed
in multi-line, not text on them. Consider this:

After upgrading form Debian squeeze to wheezy, my usual theme now has two lines 
of text on each task label. However, some other themes I've tried (like the 
default) use the old method of cutting off the name and appending an ellipsis ( 
'...' ) to the end on tasks with long names.

What is controlling this behavior? How can I disable it?

I think setting a task_padding will solve your problems...  The area's height 
will shrink, and with it the possibility to put multiple lines of text there.

yes, you can
- increase font height
- or in task_padding = x y, you can increase y parameter until tint2 draw one 
line

Was it removed from the SVN or was only the "text in multiple lines" feature 
added?

I think baltazar explained it perfectly by sending link to:

Right now tray icons are split up in 2 or more lines but not the tasks.
