It still doesn't work for me:

I start my kde4daily virtual image (revision 822952) and log into KDE. I switch the resolution from 1280x768 to 1024x768 via xrandr -s, and log out.
I log in again and switch the resolution back to  via xrandr -s, and the screen looks like the image attached above: the background image is not enlarged to the rest of the screen size, and the panel stays at the old size. Already open windows still maximize to the old screen size.

I can indeed enlarge the panel to the full size and move it to the right position just by the panel settings now, and new windows maximize to the full area. Also, the plasma symbol is at the right corner of the new screen size, and I can move Plasma applets to the new screen area.
But that is not done automatically: the plasma panel should move to the bottom of the new screen automatically and should also enlarge to the same percentage of the new screen size as it had on the old screen size. Last but not least the background wallpaper should now fill the whole screen, and already opened windows should have no problem to be maximized to the new screen size.
