for KDE3, yes.[1] one to get the rect, e.g. QRect Kicker::desktopRect() and a 
DCOP signal kicker can emit when this changes.

it may even be nicer to allow sending kdesktop a set of rect's so that if a 
panel only obscures 50% of the screen, icons can appear in the other 50%? 
kicker uses extended NETWM struts since 3.4 so this s houldbe possible. for 
now i guess we should keep it simple, in any case.


[1] for KDE4, hopefully the distinction between kdesktop and kicker will 
disappear
