It is easy to say but very hard to do. You need to modify Emacs
redisplay/window code and also each of the ports (X11, Xt, Gtk+, NS, Windows)
have code for this that needs to be modified.
What happens on Windows is nothing I know about.
The solution must be to add something that takes up slack that isn't an Emacs
window. On OSX Lion this happens automatically when Emacs is fullscreen (in
my own modified version). A black strip appears under the toolbar.
But we are in feature freeze, so this is nothing I think about.
