Dear Maintainer,

This version of taskmanager gradually hides the top-most entries in the process
list when taskmanager is not in the foreground. With no scrollbar it is not
possible to see that this has occurred and that the cpu-hogging task you are
interested in is no longer visible at the top of the list.

Switching back to the taskmanager allows you to scroll back to the top of the
list, but this bug reduces the usefulness of taskmanager. (I like to keep the
window open in the background so I can glance across at it when I notice CPU
usage spiking and see which process is causing it.)
