probably, once someone tracks down the issues ... :)

the available geometry code in the examples wasn't quite right either:

QDesktopWidget *desktop = QApplication::desktop();
QRect r = desktop->availableGeometry(desktop->screen(window));

that will actually work (in theory) on multi-screen systems. kephal is an even 
better bet there but may not be running if outside of a kde desktop shell.

as for the geometry of the window including the window decorations you can use 
KWindowInfo::frameGeometry; note however, that if your window is maximized 
that it's likely to be == to the widget geometry.
