    The line uses the same colour as the tiles on the Start menu, you could choose an unobtrusive one.
    Settings > Personalisation > Colours

    If you get a chance to look at a Macintosh computer you will notice on their Dock that open programs have a dot under them. Who stole from who in that feature/idea?

    Basically, they are there to show which program is open on which Virtual Desktop. Too sloppy of a hack to get rid of. Live with it.
