  there is also availableScreenRegion that plasma is using when dragging applets but how can Latte access them ?
  Only way I thought it would be a dbus protocol and that would make things complex.

  Latte knows exactly how much space the user wants but I dont know how to inform plasma for this.

  I suppose that all dock implementations fall into the case... such as Plank, Cairo dock etc...
