I tested and it doesn't work.
I have one screen: when kicker is shown, it returns 0, and when hidden
(automatically or with an hide button), it returns... 0.

Yes, perhapse.
But every systray managers would have to set this.
And it would solve an already solved problem (in a more beautiful way,
of course).

Yes, I think it is.

Or a way to raise kicker (quickly, and give kicker the time to redraw
itself...).
Don't know if GNOME taskbar can be raised programatically this way...

Yes.
Until a solution, or a standard across desktops, is found.
