I've used "create application shortcuts..." to put icons on my taskbar, but I need one for each Chrome profile, which is less than ideal and also is another icon(or 2) on my taskbar., but works. I'd really like to have TO in the Apps menu/launcher. That does support multiple profiles.
Also, the open extension taskbar icons don't get picked up by windows to combine, so yeah. Having them in the Apps launcher would be pretty fantastic. Having the icon there instead of the main button bar in chrome would serve me much better.
