Perhaps this should be only set when the "for transparency" appearance
setting for the taskbar is set, which is also when there is an outline on
the fonts of the taskbar to improve legibility.

Was this added in Trinity 3.5.11/12?
Otherwise I'm confused why this does not happen in KDE.
If this is a Trinity mod then I'll submit a bug report to
add a config option to restore the original behavior.
The shadow is present to improve
legibility with the transparent panel.
My suggestion would be to add a separate radio button
configuration option
to control the shadow with options
enable/disable/auto.
