Comment (by perelandra):
I was looking for an existing ticket for an app_server annoyance of
zooming applications over (or under) the Deskbar. The app_server seems to
consider the screen region used by the deskbar as fair game for use when
zooming. I tend to use the Deskbar on the length of the screen either on
top or bottom with "Always on top" enabled. As such, often times window
tabs get hidden under the Deskbar or the bottoms of the window (scrollbar,
resize corner, etc) get hidden as well. Yes I understand applications do
(should?) zoom to fit the contents, but some apps like Terminal have
variable content so don't really have clear size to "fit" content.
Also related is that windows still "snap" the the edges of the entire
screen, but snapping to the edge of the deskbar should also be possible.
