it's actually pretty easy to do:

DCOPRef dcop("kicker", "Panel").
int panelSize = dcop.call("panelSize");

however, you can have more than one panel around, so you might get the WRONG 
panel with that call =) there's no nice way of figuring out which panel you 
are currently on. the best way is to go the route of a mutable var and 
storing the value passed into heightForWidth / widthForHeight
