In XFCE, if you right-click anywhere on the toolbar and go to Panel -> Panel
Preferences, you can change the size under "Row Size"..  But no, I don't
know how to contact them.

It does (see the mouse on the desktop? That's XFCE's mascot.), just maybe it
uses a different version than I have.  I'll boot from it on Saturday to back
up, so if you haven't got an answer by then I'll report back.

OK.  I just booted off systemrescuecd, and here's what I saw

Mine uses XFCE 4.16.  Right click on the taskbar and at the bottom there's a
"Panel >" submenu.  Go there and the second item is "Panel Preferences".  Do
that and you get the config dialog for the taskbar, and near the bottom is
"Row size (pixels)".  Changes take effect immediately.

But, maybe mine is old and they no longer use (that version of) XFCE, so YMMV.
